Three dividend stocks with yields over 6% gain attention in December
Three dividend stocks with yields above 6% are attracting attention this December. Pfizer offers a yield of 6.4%, having raised its dividend for 15 years. The company is expanding its drug portfolio despite competition for some top products. W.P. Carey, a real estate investment trust, has a yield of 6.1%. Although it faced challenges, including a tenant's bankruptcy, it is closing significant deals and expects to maintain its dividend. Its largest tenant contributes only a small portion of total rent. Omega Healthcare Investors, another REIT, provides a 6.6% yield. It focuses on nursing homes and has consistently raised dividends since 2015. Despite industry challenges, demand for nursing facilities remains strong, supporting its dividend payout.
