Dear Investor, Capital preservation is an investor’s primary objective. And never more than when the securities in a portfolio are under selling pressure. At the same time, investors know that there are buying opportunities in every market. But when it comes to buying stocks in a risk-off market, active investors should embrace the idea that the best offense is a good defense. One way they can do this is to look for quality dividend stocks. Dividend stocks are not going to generate the growth that investors can get in young tech stocks. These are mature companies that pay out a percentage of their earnings as a dividend. However, on a risk-adjusted basis many of these stocks have outperformed the stocks of companies that don’t pay dividends. These dividends can make up a significant portion of an investor’s total return. In fact, S&P Global estimates that dividends accounted for approximately one-third of the S&P 500 index’s total return over the last 100 years. That’s a lot of money to leave on the table if you’re not already invested in dividend stocks. It’s time to change that. And that’s the focus of this special presentation. We’re analyzing seven dividend stocks that investors can look for when they’re looking for safety from market volatility. These dividends are safe and likely to continue to rise on a yearly basis.
