A dividend stock is a term that itself says a lot about it. When you buy a stock it gives you a steady stream of funds in the form of sizeable yields on a regular basis. They are a comparatively safer bet in the present low-rate environment and at a time when the market is under tremendous pressure from various other forces. Time and again it has been proved that a stock that pays dividends is actually “one of the best” -- if not “the best" -- way to build wealth over time. It also provides a cushion during economic uncertainties. Shrewd investors and those who crave to see their wealth increase have always looked for dividend stocks.
It could be a good idea to look for value stocks (the stocks most likely to perform well based on valuation measures). There are a number of stocks that are inexpensive for a reason but also offer a decent dividend income. In the event of a massive economic downturn, this strategy may protect your portfolio from extreme catastrophe. We have selected four stocks that could be promising picks. Not only do these stocks have a favorable Zacks Rank but also a value score of ‘A’ or ‘B’ but also have a dividend yield of greater than 5% and a market cap of more than $100 million: PDL BioPharma, Inc. (PDLI), Ericsson (ERIC), Ashford Hospitality Trust, Inc. (AHT) and DHT Holdings, Inc. (DHT).
