Top 2012 Stocks

In this uncertain economic time people are looking everywhere for a quick buck but with high return comes high risk. Below is a list of stocks that I like due to high dividends and their ability to outperform the market. If a company is paying dividends it normally means it has high cash reserves or are financially strong. The key to dividends is reinvesting them into the company because getting paid $.50 per share every quarter isn’t going to cover your monthly bills. However if you reinvest those dividends and wait for 10+ years you will have accumulated many more shares then your initial investment. Other companies contained in this list I think will out perform the market due to historical performance as well as promising strong financial future.

Div.
$1.4 American Capital Agency Corp (NASDAQ: AGNC)

$.65 Invesco Mortgage Capital Inc. (NYSE: IVR)

$.82 Sandridge MIssissippian Trust (NYSE: CEL)

$.22 Mesa Royalty Trust (NYSE: MTR)

$2.52 BP Prudhoe Bay Royalty Trust (NYSE: BPT)

******* Southside Bancshares Inc. (NASDAQ: SBSI)

$.36 Sabine Royalty Trust (NYSE:SBR)

******* Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F)

Even though the above companies do currently have dividends there is no guarentee of future dividends. As always, invest as an investor not on a speculative basis. Best of luck!

Cheers!
