The recent financial meltdown was replete with lessons for all types of investors. For dividend investors, though, one of the key lessons may have been the importance of diversification. Historically, the banking industry was a prime fishing hole for dividend lovers. But hefty losses during the panic led to dividend-slashing all over the industry. Income-oriented investors that overexposed themselves to banks may have suddenly found their portfolios' yields badly battered.
Tech and dividends, like peanut butter and guacamole. Just like the foods named above, I'm a fan of both the technology industry and dividends. Unfortunately -- in the case of the stocks at least -- the two aren't found together nearly as often as I'd like.
