3 Stocks to Buy With Dividends Yielding More Than 3%

If you look only at yield to the exclusion of all other factors, then you run the risk of buying stocks that don't have the growth prospects you want. Instead, the highest-quality dividend stocks will offer not only income but also share-price appreciation potential that can dramatically add to your total returns.

Income investors love dividend stocks because they combine both current income and growth prospects. However, you can't just buy any dividend stock. Instead, you need the stocks with the most potential for future gains. Below, you'll find out how McDonald's (NYSE:MCD), Target (NYSE:TGT), and Procter & Gamble (NYSE:PG) have not only managed to give investors yields of 3% or more but have also provided ongoing growth to longtime investors.
