3 Dividend-Paying Tech Stocks to Buy in October
Investors have traditionally turned to sectors outside of tech when looking for dividends. However, as that industry has matured, tech stocks have increasingly begun offering dividend payouts.
Now that October has arrived, many tech dividend stocks will announce earnings for the previous quarter. Some of these stocks pay dividends well above the S&P 500's average yield of around 1.8%. Many of those also maintain track records of annual dividend increases.
As AT&T (NYSE: T), International Business Machines (NYSE: IBM), and Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR) prepare to make their quarterly earnings announcements, they could report results that not only reinforce their dividends but also set the stage for eventual stock growth. Let's take a closer look at these three dividend-paying tech stocks and see if they might be worth picking up in October.
