Dividend Champs With Yields 50% Higher Than 10-Year Treasuries - Seeking Alpha

Dividend Champs With Yields 50% Higher Than 10-Year Treasuries - Seeking Alpha: I've been writing lots of brain-busting theoretical articles lately. It's time to have a little fun, set theory aside for awhile, and just come up with some names.

As I write this, the yield on the 10-year Treasury is 2.25%. A yield 50% higher than that would be 3.375%. Assuming any of these stocks you might purchase does not cut its dividend, that initial yield on cost would be locked in for as long as you own the stock. With future dividend increases, it would get larger.

So the list below is of Dividend Champions with yields higher than 3.375%. As a measure of how low interest rates are, there are no fewer than 18 Champions (out of 103) that qualify.
