A High Dividend Stock Yielding 10%, With 7 Straight Dividend Hikes, Going Ex-Dividend Soon

But when you look further into this company's operations, you'll discover that it has minimal exposure to crude oil prices, and, in fact, there are ongoing industry forces that are increasing demands for its services. The market now seems to agree, as its stock has outperformed in 2015.
