All-Star Dividend Stocks

I'm delighted that dividend stocks are back in vogue on Wall Street. But because they seem to be everywhere nowadays, it's become increasingly difficult for investors to separate the true winners from the losers. If you've mastered the basics of dividends and want to plan your next move, here are eight red-hot dividend stocks that deserve their massive popularity.

Consumer sentiment is at its lowest point since the depths of the Great Recession. Home sales remain at levels comparable to the early 1980s. And unemployment is stuck at 9.1% -- or 16.2%, if you factor in people who have stopped looking for work. For only the second time since the 1950s, the average dividend yield on the S&P 500 is higher than the 10-year Treasury bond. Investors accordingly face the opposite problem -- namely, that there are too many amazing dividend stocks to choose from.
