3 Dependable Dividend Stocks That Pay No Less Than 6%


Cogs turning against each other

When you are looking for reliable dividend stocks with high yields, there are relatively limited choices, especially if you are looking outside the REIT pool. But it’s still possible to lock in a healthy 6% or higher yield with a decent probability that the company will not slash its dividends in the future, though there is no certainty.

propane company

Superior Plus (TSX:SPB) has a propane (and its distillates) marketing and distribution business. It’s already the number one propane distributor in Canada (retail) and controls about 38% of the market. The position in the U.S. is not as lucrative (it’s the fourth-largest distributor), but it’s quite an accomplishment considering the market size.

This leadership position in the market and the fact that the stock has mostly hovered around the baseline price between $10 and $12 since the Great Recession endorses the relative safety of the stock. It’s currently offering its investors a decent 6.3% yield, so you can start a monthly passive income of about $157 with $30,000 invested in the company.

senior living company

Senior living, which includes long-term-care facilities and retirement homes, is usually a stable business. The aging population is steadily increasing, and if only an adequate number of new facilities come online each year, the business of companies like Sienna Senior Living (TSX:SIA) is expected to remain stable.

With stable business and financials, the company can sustain the regular monthly dividends that it has grown twice in the last five years. The current yield is 6.9%, and the payout ratio, even though it’s above 100%, is stable compared to the payout ratio historically. At this rate, the company can help you start a monthly income of about $172 with $30,000 capital.

n asset management firm

Montreal-based Fiera Capital (TSX:FSZ) has been quite generous in growing its payouts and has raised them three times in the last five years. The regular capital appreciation coupled with a robust 9.2% yield make it an attractive dividend stock that you can invest in. At this rate, the company can produce a monthly income stream of about $230 with a capital of $30,000.

Fiera makes most of its money from two of its four business segments — equities and fixed-income assets from public markets. Geographically, Canada makes up most of the company’s operating income, though it has a decent international footprint, especially a strong presence in the U.S. market.

But like the other two stocks on this list, the company is a better investment for its dividend than its capital-appreciation potential. It’s a resilient stock, though, so you can expect decent capital gains when it’s recovering from a dip or a crash.

Foolish takeaway

Dividend stocks are usually easy enough for beginner stocks to understand, as the return potential is predictable and often tangible. In contrast, a stock’s growth or loss isn’t realized until you exit the position. But it’s still a good idea to ponder your investment and retirement goals before you invest in stocks that only offer dividends-based return potential.

Get Rich With These High-Yield Canadian Dividend Stocks

Image
Dividend stocks are one of the smartest ways to create wealth in the long term. By investing in dividend-paying stocks, one can generate returns in two ways: dividends and capital appreciation. As top dividend-paying companies generally have well-established businesses and a growing earnings base, they generate steady capital gains in the long term. Further, the reinvestment of dividends allows investors to accumulate more shares and create wealth in the long term.  With this background, let’s zoom in on three high-yield Canadian stocks that can help you get rich over time.  Enbridge  Enbridge (TSX:ENB) is a must-have dividend stock, and there are solid reasons behind that. Besides offering a lucrative yield of 6.7% (based on its closing price of $53.14 on May 10), the company has a resilient business that consistently delivers steady growth.  Enbridge owns extensive midstream assets and transports oil and gas. In addition, Enbridge has interests in renewable energy faci...

How much dividend income can you earn?

Image
Passive income. It’s one of the most common financial goals for Canadian investors. Everybody likes making money on a stock trade, but what could be better than a stock that pays you income year in and year out? Such are the kinds of stocks that Warren Buffett and other long-term investors made their fortunes on. This raises a question: Is it possible to make a truly substantial amount of money – let’s say $1,000 per month – with just dividend stocks? Such a thing would be very helpful if it could be done. Consider that, $1,000 per month is more than what the average Canadian gets from the Canada Pension Plan (CPP). If you take the average CPP payment ($811) and add $1,000 per month in dividend income to it, you get to a sum of money that could potentially pay all of your bills. In this article, I will explore the topic of making money with dividend stocks. I will show how much money you’d need to invest to get $1,000 a month in dividend income. I will reveal a stock that...

The market pullback is giving Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) investors a chance to buy top Canadian dividend stocks at undervalued prices for a self-directed portfolio focused on long-term total returns. TC Energy TC Energy (TSX:TRP)(NYSE:TRP) has raised its dividend in each of the past 22 years, and investors should see the distribution continue to grow at a steady pace. The energy infrastructure giant operates natural gas pipelines, oil pipelines, and power-generation facilities in Canada, the United States, and Mexico. The $28 billion capital program is largely focused on expanding the natural gas pipeline business, which already boasts 93,000 km of infrastructure.

In Canada, TC Energy is building the Coastal GasLink pi...
