This popular high-yield stock is overpriced and could be setting investors up for disappointment. A high-quality opportunity with a 7%+ yield is trading at a discount while Wall Street overlooks it. The market is making a mistake—this high-yield stock just pulled back, creating a perfect buying opportunity.
High-yield dividend companies with attractive valuations can allow you to generate extra income while reducing portfolio volatility and investing with a margin of safety. This list of high dividend yield companies includes dividend yields [FWD] between 4.33% (Chevron) and 15.50%-plus (Petrobras) while the selected companies offer an average P/E [FWD] ratio of 10.77. I suggest overweighting companies with attractive risk-reward profiles and dividend payments that are sustainable, allowing you to increase your wealth with an elevated likelihood.
