Not all dividend stocks are equal. Some are safer than others. Some have much higher dividend yields than others. When a stock offers both advantages, it's usually a keeper.
Three Motley Fool contributors have found stocks with mouthwatering dividends that you can buy right now. Here's why they picked Gilead Sciences (NASDAQ: GILD) , Organon (NYSE: OGN) , and Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) .
Prosper Junior Bakiny (Gilead Sciences): When looking for solid dividend-paying stocks, a high yield isn't everything -- but it sure is nice. Gilead Sciences, a leading biotech company, currently offers a yield of 4.80%, much higher than the S&P 500 's average of 1.35%. Gilead Sciences' juicy yield is partly due to it underperforming in recent years, but investors shouldn't fear a dividend cut.
