Dividend stocks are income investor favorites because they not only pay cash to shareholders but also boost their payouts over time. These stocks are generally less volatile in nature and hence are often more dependable when it comes to long-term investment planning. Dividend-paying stocks are particularly beneficial amid a low interest rate environment, as these stocks offer substantial yields on a regular basis. Moreover, such stocks are historically proven to outperform in the long term and are quite reliable in terms of wealth creation.
Choosing the right dividend stocks can be a daunting task as it requires careful consideration of both the past performance of the company and its prospects. A stock that has delivered strong performance in the past but is likely to face troubled times ahead definitely does not qualify as an attractive pick. We note that an impressive current-year dividend yield and a strong dividend yield history are also important for identifying strong dividend-paying stocks. 5 Stocks Eorth Buying: CenterPoint Energy, Inc. (CNP), DTE Energy Company (DTE), The GEO Group, Inc. (GEO), Innophos Holdings, Inc. (IPHS) and Rio Tinto plc (RIO).
