3 Dividend Stocks I'd Buy Right Now
It's tempting to chase high-growth stocks as the market hits fresh highs. However, investors shouldn't ignore slower-growth stocks with generous dividends, since high yields can set a floor under the stock when the bears pounce.
When seeking out a dividend stock, investors should look for wide moats, low valuations, sustainable payout ratios, and yields which exceed the S&P 500's average yield of 1.7%. Let's examine three stocks which pass those tests: Philip Morris International (NYSE: PM), Seagate Technology (NASDAQ: STX), and AT&T (NYSE: T).
