Many companies have put a lower priority on paying dividends over the years. The average dividend yield of stocks in the S&P 500 has fallen from over 3% a few decades ago to less than 2% in the past couple of decades (and recently closer to 1.5%).
However, some stocks stand out for their high dividend yields . AT&T (NYSE: T) , Equitrans Midstream (NYSE: ETRN) , and Innovative Industrial Properties (NYSE: IIPR) currently offer big-time dividend payments. Here's a look at whether they're solid options for yield-focused investors to consider.
AT&T currently pays a quarterly dividend of $0.2775 per share ($1.11 annualized). That gives the telecom giant a 7.8% yield at its recent price.
