AT&T, Altria Group, and Energy Transfer are top buys with dividends from $1K invested exceeding single share prices, meeting the dogcatcher ideal. Analysts forecast 15.47% to 28.33% net gains by November 2025 for top-ten F500IL dogs, with Energy Transfer as the standout “safer” choice. Eight F500IL stocks show negative free cash flow margins, making them unsafe buys; price drops or dividend increases could make top-yield F500IL fair-priced.

Verizon

I have selected Pfizer and Verizon as my top two high dividend yield companies to invest in for November 2024. Both pay an attractive Dividend Yield [FWD] of 6.14% (Pfizer) and 6.58% (Verizon) and have a relatively low Valuation (P/E Non-GAAP [FWD] Ratio of 9.34 (Pfizer) and 8.80 (Verizon). To reduce the company-specific concentration risk of your investment portfolio, I suggest setting an allocation limit of 3% for both companies.

AT&T has rebounded significantly, with shares up over 40% in the past year, driven by strong free cash flow and improving financial metrics.
