14 Safest Stocks with Highest Dividends

7. American Tower Corporation (NYSE:AMT)

Dividend Yield as of March 30: 4.04%

On March 30, Truist Financial analyst Matthew Niknam initiated coverage of American Tower Corporation (NYSE:AMT) with a Buy rating. It set a $205 price target on the stock. The analyst said towers remain high-quality businesses with long-term upside, though the near-term path looks more challenging. He added that even with valuations near multi-year lows, the group lacks a clear catalyst for a re-rating, pointing to slower organic growth and ongoing pressure from interest rates.

During the Q4 2025 earnings call, CFO Rodney Smith outlined expectations for 2026. He said consolidated organic tenant billings growth is projected at around 1%, or about 4% when excluding DISH churn. In the US and Canada, he expects organic tenant billings growth of roughly 0.5%, or about 4.5% excluding DISH churn.

Across other regions, Smith said Africa and APAC are expected to deliver growth of about 8.5%, while Europe is projected at around 4%. Latin America, by contrast, is expected to decline by about 3%. He added that management is encouraged by the possibility of an earlier recovery in Brazil and sees potential for a pickup in organic growth heading into 2027.
