Diversified Utilities with Highest Dividend Yields

A safe and high income is a dream for most of us. For sure, safe and high incomes without any kind of risk are impossible, but out there are still some sectors and industries with companies which have a high possibility to fulfill these items. Let me mention one thing: Safe dividends do not exist and a safe dividend is no growing dividend. If your income does not grow over the long-run, you will get poorer and poorer due to the inflation pressure.

Today I would like to scout the utility sector by the highest dividend-paying opportunities. The sector is one of the smallest branched ones because of its five sub industries. I will focus on the diversified utility industry today which already has 24 stocks listed. The industry is the highest dividend-paying one (4.64 percent average yield) from the utility sector and also the biggest branch with a total market capitalization of $11.41 trillion. Here are my favorite stocks: Public Service Enterprise Group (PEG), Westar Energy (WR) and Northeast Utilities (NU).
