    We asked three of our Foolish contributors for their top dividends today and Phillips 66 Partners (NYSE:PSXP), Las Vegas Sands (NYSE:LVS), and Hess Midstream Partners (NYSE:HESM) were at the top of the list. And these are very different dividends indeed. 

  • [By Todd Campbell]

    In the past, Hess' growth was hamstrung by mature assets that provided stable production but little opportunity for upside. That's changing. Hess is selling slow-growth assets, and last year it created Hess Midstream Partners (NYSE:HESM), a master limited partnership it maintains an ownership stake in that controls Hess midstream assets in the Bakken shale. 

  • [By Todd Campbell, Chris Neiger, and Sean Williams]

    Although there's no way to completely protect yourself from the risk that a company falls on tough times, focusing on companies with catalysts that support dividend payments may improve the odds of picking winners instead of losers. With that in mind, our Motley Fool investors scoured the universe of dividend paying stocks for companies that pay a high yield they think is sustainable. They settled on Hess Midstream Partners (NYSE:HESM), AT & T (NYSE:T), and Alliance Resource Partners (NASDAQ:ARLP). Are these top stocks to consider buying now?

Keith Fitz-Gerald

JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) CEO Jamie Dimon is known for being very direct, and what he had to say from the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, didn't disappoint. His message on CNBC's Squawk on the Street Wednesday came down to five simple words that should be music to the ears of every investor on the planet…

…you ain't seen nothing yet.

Clearly I'm paraphrasing, but there's some real insight in what he had to say.

As always, though, you've got to go beyond the headlines and read between the lines which is exactly what we're going to do today. As always, I've got a recommendation poised for big gains as a result of what everyone else is missing.

Here's what you need to know…

Jamie Dimon has a long history on Wall Street that started, ironically enough, with another legendary name, Sandford "Sandy" Weill. Dimon became Weill's protégé after graduating from Harvard Business School in 1983. Technically, Dimon became Weill's assistant at American Express after turning down offers from Wall Street's "holy trinity" – Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers, and Morgan Stanley (if my memory serves).

Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Tyler Crowe, Jason Hall, and Matthew DiLallo]

    Matt DiLallo (Williams Companies): This natural gas pipeline giant has had a slow start in 2018. Through the first half of the year, cash flow at the company's MLP Williams Partners (NYSE:WPZ) has only increased by about 2%, due mainly to recent asset sales. However, with a major expansion project coming on line, cash flow growth should accelerate in the second half of the year. That project and others in the pipeline have the company on track to grow cash flow 9% in 2018 and another 13% next year.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Overall, earnings at both Williams and its MLP Williams Partners (NYSE:WPZ) were down slightly versus the year-ago period due to asset sales, while cash flow modestly increased thanks to lower interest expenses.

  • [By Maxx Chatsko]

    Simpler organizational structures could yield significant benefits for individual investors. In addition to being easier to follow and understand, it will make it easier than ever to own some of the most important pieces of energy infrastructure in the United States. The proposed merger between Williams Companies (NYSE:WMB) and Williams Partners LP (NYSE:WPZ) is a great example, as it owns some of the best natural gas infrastructure in the United States. Here's why investors should be bullish on the multi-billion dollar merger.
