Hess Midstream LP was founded in 2014 and is based in Houston, Texas. 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. 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. 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?
