Better High-Yield Dividend Stock to Buy Now: Pfizer vs. Prologis
Investors looking for sources of passive income to fuel their retirement dreams face a dilemma. Should you chase high yields from slow-growing businesses or invest in lower-yield providers with more predictable cash flows? Lately, Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) and Prologis (NYSE: PLD) have been perfect examples of the trade-off between attractive yields and dividend growth. Pfizer offers a sky-high yield that's climbing slowly. Prologis offers a much lower yield, but it's been raising its payout at a remarkable pace. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » Here's a closer look at both to help you decide which one fits your goals. Pfizer Shares of Pfizer have fallen about 62% from their COVID-19 pandemic highs. The stock is way down, but the company has raised its payout every year since 2009. At its beaten-down price, this stock offers an eye-popping 7.3% dividend yield. Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine, Comirnaty, and antiviral treatment, Paxlovid, drove adjusted earnings up to $6.58 per share in 2022. Sinking demand for COVID-19 vaccines and treatments reduced adjusted earnings to just $3.11 per share last year. In 2025, Pfizer expects a significant earnings contraction. At the midpoint of the guided range management provided this April, adjusted earnings are expected to fall by 6.8% this year. The $2.80 per share management expects at the low end of the guided range is more than enough to support a dividend payout currently set at an annualized $1.72 annually, but there could be further contractions ahead. Eliquis is a next-generation blood thinner that Pfizer markets in collaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb. It's currently responsible for 14% of Pfizer's total revenue and is likely to lose ground to generic competition in the lucrative U.S. market in 2028. Long before Eliquis loses ground to generic competition, the company's lead growth driver, Vyndaquel, could stumble. BridgeBio launched a competing treatment called Attruby in late 2024, and it's been exceeding expectations. Pfizer's facing patent cliffs, but it also has one of the most productive development pipelines in the industry. Last year alone, the Food and Drug Administration issued more than a dozen approvals to new Pfizer treatments and several that are already on the market. With plenty of new products to market, the drugmaker has a good chance to continue its payout-raising streak in the decade ahead. Prologis As more folks do their shopping online, demand for warehouses that can support e-commerce has soared. By anticipating the demand, Prologis has become the world's largest real estate investment trust (REIT) that everyday investors can buy shares of. Fear and uncertainty regarding the taxes businesses need to pay when importing goods to the U.S. have pressured the stock. It's down about 12% from a peak it set in March. At its beaten-down price, it offers a 3.7% yield. Prologis has been able to raise its dividend by 11.7% annually over the past five years. At this pace, investors who buy at recent prices could begin receiving a double-digit yield on cost in less than a decade. Amazon, Home Depot, and FedEx are Prologis' largest customers. These three tenants are responsible for only 8.2% of the rent payments Proligis receives every month. This high level of diversification is a big reason it can boast industry-leading credit ratings. With an A2 rating from Moody's and an A rating from S&P Global, the weighted average interest rate on Prologis' outstanding debts was just 3.1% at the end of March. Acquiring and developing properties is an important part of this REIT's business, but it also acts as a lender. With an enviable credit rating, it can produce a strong profit while offering rates that its smaller competitors can't match. For companies that own their warehouses, selling them to Prologis and leasing them back is often their lowest-cost source of capital. With the vast majority of the world's logistics real estate still owned by the companies that use it, Prologis could continue growing at a rapid pace for decades to come. Pfizer offers a yield that's almost twice as high as Prologis's, but the pharmaceutical giant has been raising its payout at less than half the pace of the logistics REIT. Pfizer might be a good option for folks near retirement age. For income-seeking investors, though, Prologis seems like the better dividend stock to buy now. Should you invest $1,000 in Prologis right now? Before you buy stock in Prologis, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Prologis wasn't one of them.

4 Top Dividend ETFs Yielding Over 4% to Buy for Easy Passive Income
Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) make investing easy. These managed funds come with built-in diversification. Because of that, you can buy an ETF and sit back and let it do all the work. Many ETFs hold income-generating investments, making them ideal for those seeking passive income. Here are four top dividend ETFs yielding at least 4% to buy and hold for easy passive income. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF The Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEMKT: SCHD) tracks an index (Dow Jones U.S. Dividend 100 Index) focused on companies that pay quality and sustainable dividends. It targets higher-yielding dividend stocks that have grown their payouts at healthy rates over the past five years, which seem likely to continue. The Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF has a distribution yield of slightly more than 4% based on its payments over the last 12 months. Given the fund's emphasis on holding dividend growers, it has delivered a steadily rising income stream to its investors over the years: SCHD Dividend data by YCharts. While that past performance doesn't guarantee future success, the fund's focus on high-quality companies that grow their dividends bodes well for its ability to continue paying a steadily rising income stream. iShares Preferred and Income Securities ETF The iShares Preferred and Income Securities ETF (NASDAQ: PFF) tracks an index that holds preferred and hybrid securities. These investments are like a combination of bonds (they pay fixed income) and stocks (they represent an ownership interest). They tend to be riskier than bonds but have a lower risk profile than stocks. The fund currently holds 443 securities, primarily issued by financial institutions (70.2% of its holdings), industrial companies (18.2%), and utilities (10.2%). The ETF has a 6.6% yield based on payments over the last 12 months. That's on par with a high-yield bond fund. In addition to that high yield, which can fluctuate from month to month, the fund offers some potential for price appreciation. For example, a $10,000 investment made at the fund's inception in 2007 would be worth over $20,000 today. JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF The JPMorgan Equity Premium ETF (NYSEMKT: JEPI) aims to distribute income to investors each month while also providing them with less volatile exposure to the equity market. The JPMorgan Equity Premium ETF has a two-fold investment strategy designed to achieve that goal: Defensive equity portfolio: The fund holds a portfolio of stocks selected based on its proprietary, risk-adjusted stock rankings to provide exposure to the market. Discipline options overlay strategy: The ETF's managers write out-of-the-money (above the current level) call options on the S&P 500 Index. By writing (or shorting) these options, it gets paid the options premium (value of the option). The strategy generates income that the fund can distribute to investors each month. The fund's strategy is very lucrative: As that chart shows, it has delivered a higher income yield than U.S. high-yield bonds (junk bonds) over the past 12 months. In addition to that lucrative passive-income stream, the fund can also deliver some price-appreciation potential from its stock portfolio. Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF The Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF (NYSEMKT: GCOW) focuses on companies that generate lots of free cash flow. That enables these cash cows to pay lucrative dividends. The strategy-driven ETF aims to identify companies that can continue to pay attractive dividends by screening for them based on their free-cash-flow yield and dividend yield. The fund holds the top 100 companies with the highest free-cash-flow yield and highest dividend yield. It weighs them by their dividends, capping the top holding at 2% of the fund's assets. It reconstitutes and rebalances its holdings twice each year to ensure it holds the 100 top cash cow dividend stocks. The average holding in the fund has a 6.3% free-cash-flow yield and a 4.7% dividend yield. However, after expenses (the fund has a 0.6% ETF expense ratio), its annualized dividend yield is closer to 4.2%. While the fund's strategy aims to identify companies in a better position to maintain and grow their dividends, there's no guarantee that will happen, as fund payments can fluctuate, sometimes significantly, based on dividends received by the companies it holds. Easy ways to collect passive income ETFs make it super easy to generate passive income. Many ETFs focus on holding income-producing investments, giving investors lots of options. The Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF, iShares Preferred and Income Securities ETF, JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF, and Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF stand out for their attractive yields and potential for income growth. Should you invest $1,000 in Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF right now? Before you buy stock in Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF wasn't one of them.
