My 5 Favorite Ultra-High-Yield Dividend Stocks to Buy for 2025
I like every part of the phrase “ultra-high-yield dividend stocks.” Investing in stocks allows me to own portions of great businesses. Dividends pay me to own the stocks. And thinking about dividends with ultra-high yields brings a smile to my face.
The new year presents a great opportunity for investors who share my appreciation for these kinds of stocks. Here are my five favorite ultra-high-yield dividend stocks to buy for 2025 (listed alphabetically).
Ares Capital (NASDAQ: ARCC) checks off multiple boxes for me. Its forward dividend yield of 8.72% is especially attractive. I view Ares Capital’s valuation as attractive with shares trading at only 10 times forward earnings. I also like that the stock has trounced the S&P 500 index over the long term based on total returns.
