2 Dividend Stocks to Buy and 1 to Avoid

How can investors not like dividend stocks? Dividend stocks can be a phenomenal way for investors to build wealth over time and in recent years with rock bottom interest rates dividend stocks have been extremely popular with income investors. While that interest may wane slightly as interest rates move higher, dividend stocks will still remain an extremely valuable option for long-term investors.

With that said, here are two great dividend stocks for your watch list and one to avoid. First up: General Motors (NYSE:GM) - Currently the automaker's $0.36 per share quarterly dividend is fetching investors a high 4.5% yield, but it's the potential upside with GM's earnings that make it a very intriguing dividend play. Next up: The Boeing Co. (NYSE:BA) - Earlier this year Boeing increased its dividend by 25% to $0.91 per share for a yield of 2.5%. Avoid Caterpillar (NYSE:CAT) - Caterpillar's business is getting hammered on multiple fronts across the globe.
