Top 10 Dow Dividend Stocks

• Market Cap: $83 billion
• Annual Dividend: $1.90
• Dividend Yield: 6.3%

Verizon (NYSE: VZ) provides the largest dividend yield on this list.  With a whopping 6.3% yield, or $1.90 annually, shareholders can not help but be pleased with the company’s dividend payment.  However, these shareholders are likely less enthused about the stock’s recent performance, as it has dropped -11.4% since January. Similarly, a -3.4% estimated sales growth for Verizon is quite unsavory to stockholders. As mentioned, the big rumor in the smartphone industry revolves around the iPhone’s potential migration to Verizon.  This of course would be huge news for the service provider that already carries the popular Blackberry and Android smartphone lines.
