3 Dividend Aristocrats You Can Buy Today
This is a tricky time for income investors. Interest rates broadly are still near their all-time lows, but the Federal Reserve anticipates numerous hikes to its benchmark fed funds rate through 2024. The prices of some dividend stocks are already starting to reflect this impending rise, but others aren't doing so yet. Shifts in a stock's dividend yield, of course, can result both from changes to the share price and from the company's decisions about how much it will pay out.
Even against the current backdrop, though, there are some dividend stocks with exceptionally solid track records that are buys at their current levels. These three Dividend Aristocrats would make good additions to your portfolio, not despite this environment but because of it.
