Few S&P 500 Stocks Yield Over 5%. Here's My Top Pick to Buy Now.
With Treasury yields rising above 5%, dividend stocks are becoming less attractive. However, UPS stands out as one of only ~20 S&P 500 stocks offering yields over 5% at 5.8%. After stabilizing its business by pivoting away from low-margin Amazon deliveries and securing higher-margin customers, UPS is expected to grow revenue 4% and adjusted EPS 2% in 2026. Trading at 15x adjusted EPS with 16 consecutive years of dividend increases, UPS offers a reliable income play for conservative investors.
