Best recommended dividend-paying stocks to invest in?

While exchange-traded funds (ETFs) can be a great way to diversify your portfolio and earn a dividend, if individual stocks are your primary strategy, then here are a few investments to choose from:

Pembina Pipeline Corp (PBA)

• 06/29: $31.88
• Dividend Yield: $0.171 (June 24, 2021)

AT&T (T)

• 06/29: $28.66
• Dividend Yield: $0.52 (April 8, 2021)

Restaurant Brands (QSR)

• 06/29: $64.43
• Dividend Yield: $0.53 (June 22, 2021)

Nutrien (NTR)

• 06/29: $59.32
• Dividend Yield: $0.46 (June 29, 2021)

Pfizer (PFE)

• 06/29: $39.10
• Dividend Yield: $0.39 (May 6, 2021)

There are plenty of stocks with high dividend payouts. The most important thing is that you need to comb through the company's record and determine if it has maintained its dividend and if it has raised it most of the time.
