This High-Dividend Stock Has 17 Straight Dividend Hikes And Yields 8%-Plus

Let's face it, the market doesn't always make sense -- sometimes companies get sold off for unsound reasons. Take Oil & Gas Equipment & Service companies, for example -- the market hates then right now. Why? Because crude has fallen dramatically this year, and Mr. Market feels that service contractors will see their future business cut back as a result. But wait a minute... oil may have gotten whacked in 2014, but natural gas spot prices have actually risen.

What does this give you? A strong, ongoing demand for compression, which is increasingly vital for getting shale gas out of the ground efficiently. There's an opportunity here for long-term income investors. This week's focus stock, Exterran Partners LP (NASDAQ:EXLP), has been pretty well beaten up over the past year, year-to-date, and also since the market highs. EXLP provides natural gas contract operations services to customers throughout the United States. Its parent company is Exterran Holdings, (NYSE:EXH).
