Very few stocks offer investors a high earnings growth rate, along with a high dividend yield. That's because most growth-focused companies need to reinvest a substantial portion of their cash flow into expanding their operations, which limits their ability to pay a big dividend.
However, there are a few companies out there that offer investors the best of both worlds. Three that stand out are energy midstream companies ONEOK (NYSE: OKE), Crestwood Equity Partners (NYSE: CEQP), and Energy Transfer (NYSE: ET). In the case of this trio, they all yield more than 4.5% while boasting double-digit earnings growth. That gives them the potential to generate market-crushing total returns in the coming years.
