Shares of Jamba (Nasdaq: JMBA) have slipped more than 70% over the last year. Has Wall Street permanently soured on the smoothie company, or could Jamba still become another Starbucks (Nasdaq: SBUX)?

In analyzing the top 20 S&P 500 stocks, Wharton business professor Jeremy Siegel found that the top performers all paid solid dividends. So what are the ultimate dividend stocks? Will Merck (NYSE: MRK) and Harley-Davidson (NYSE: HOG) produce big dividends for investors?
