dividend safety

It may be tempting to get excited about MFA Financial’s high yield, but this REIT’s history of dividend-slashing proves that the current return is not sustainable.

Is this 11.7% dividend still safe?

This stock’s dividend safety rating is low, but its future looks promising…

Utilities have very low free cash flow thanks to their massive spending on capital expenditures.

There are no crystal balls when it comes to investing… Right? Looking at Marc Lichtenfeld’s 2017 Safety Net columns, I’m beginning to think he’s some sort of clairvoyant.

At 9.8%, it’s easy to understand why investors would look at the stock – and why readers would want to know if the dividend is safe.

It’s not all doom and gloom, but your dividend may be at risk.

This master limited partnership has had a tough year in terms of stock price performance… but it’s a home run for income investors.

This is one of the most requested companies for me to analyze… and with a 11.5% yield, there’s no question why.
