3 High-Yield Dividend Stocks to Buy for the Second Half of 2020
Though investors have dealt with some wild vacillations in the stock market before, nothing could have prepared them for what 2020 has offered thus far. Since mid-February, the widely followed S&P 500 lost more than a third of its value in less than five weeks, then proceeded to regain more than 80% of what was lost over the subsequent 11 weeks. It was the fastest bear-market descent in history followed by one of the most ferocious rallies on record.
But if there's a lesson to be learned from this mess (other than the fact that downside catalysts are virtually impossible to predict), it's that buying great companies and holding them for long periods of time is the best way to build wealth in the stock market. And there are few better ways to build wealth over the long run than owning dividend stocks.
