High Dividend Stocks for 2014

In this piece I just want to outline some high dividend stocks with upsides for 2014. Most of the research I'm presenting here was done by Meena Krishnamsetty a Marketwatch corespondent, see the link below.

There are only 47 stock in the S&P 500 that pay dividends higher than 4%. Here is a list of some of the best investments on this list.

Merck: 4.1% dividend and shares have risen more than 9% in 12 months.
Intel: Shares yield 4.2%,  one of few in its sector with such high yields.
Verizon: 4.6%, ranked third among many as a mega dividend favorite.
Conoco Phillips: Only Oil and Gas industry to pay out a dividend of at leas 4%.
Lockheed Martin and Altria Group: both pay out yields greater than 5%
