The 10 Best Dividend Stocks to Buy for the Remainder of the Year

Brexit, smexit. That’s what the markets seem to be saying as we get into mid July. But while the stock market continues to plod along as if nothing has happened, the bond market is setting new record lows for yields with nearly every passing day. As I’m writing this, the 10-year Treasury yields barely 1.4%. And many of the traditionally best dividend stocks are sitting near record-low yields as well. That puts income investors in a bit of a pickle. Do you accept the current low yields on bonds and bond-like dividend stocks? Or do you reach for higher yield at the expense of taking potentially higher risk?

Thankfully, there are still plenty of dividend stocks out there paying a respectable yield. It just so happens that many are in areas you might not normally think to look. Today, I’m going to break down 10 of the best dividend stocks to hold for the remainder of 2016: Energy Transfer Equity LP (ETE), Ford Motor Company (F), General Motors Company (GM), Enterprise Products Partners L.P. (EPD), Kinder Morgan Inc (KMI), Teekay Corporation (TK), StoneMor Partners L.P. (STON), UBS ETRACS Monthly Pay 2x Leverage Mortgage REIT ETN (MORL), STAG Industrial Inc (STAG) and Prospect Capital Corporation (PSEC).
