While almost all bank stocks pay dividends, not all dividend-paying bank stocks are equally worth buying. Some are better than others. Given this, I drew up a short list of the three best bank stocks for dividend investors.
Without further ado, the banks that made the cut are Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC), U.S. Bancorp (NYSE:USB), and JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM).
Above-average dividend yields
The first reason I chose these stocks is because they all pay above-average dividend yields.
