Prudential Financial (NYSE: PRU), United Bankshares (NASDAQ: UBSI), Virtu Financial (NASDAQ: VIRT), and Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS) are four high-yielding stocks that deliver dividends above the S&P 500 average and can also help you crush inflation. For example, in 2020, when the pandemic was in the early stages, heavy volatility in the markets led to wide bid-ask spreads, and as a result, Virtu posted record revenue and profits. While investment banking activity may not keep up with the strong growth of 2021, the firm could benefit from rising rates, which would increase Morgan Stanley's net interest income.
