Truist Financial stock investors receive a 6.28% dividend. The $36 Raymond James price target is less than the consensus target of $37.19. The stock closed on Friday at $33.10, and the bank is scheduled to report on July 20.

U.S. Bancorp

This top super-regional bank is among the higher-paying dividend bank stocks. U.S. Bancorp (NYSE: USB) provides various financial services to individuals, businesses, institutional organizations, governmental entities and other financial institutions in the United States.

The company offers depository services, including checking accounts, savings accounts and time certificate contracts; lending services, such as traditional credit products; and credit card services, lease financing and import/export trade, asset-backed lending, agricultural finance and other products. It also provides ancillary services comprising capital markets, treasury management and receivable lock-box collection services to corporate customers; and a range of asset management and fiduciary services for individuals, estates, foundations, business corporations and charitable organizations.

In addition, U.S. Bancorp offers investment and insurance products to its customers principally within its markets, as well as fund administration services to a range of mutual and other funds. The company also provides corporate and purchasing card and corporate trust services, and merchant processing services, as well as cash and investment management, ATM processing, mortgage banking and brokerage and leasing services.

Shareholders receive a 5.43% dividend. BofA Securities upgraded U.S. Bancorp stock to a Buy rating last week. Its $40 target price is less than the $42.36 consensus figure, but the stock closed at $35.33 on Friday. Expect to see the results on July 20.

Note that it is possible some of these banks have to trim their dividends, but since they have exploded so high due to panic selling, even with a cut, they will still be well above most companies. With earnings for the quarter for these stocks scheduled this week, some solid prints and positive forward guidance could launch them considerably higher.
