In this low interest rate environment, dividends are still looking great. After all, the S&P 500 currently yields about 2%, and that is a heck of a lot better than you can get through most savings accounts. Stock selection remains critical with dividend stocks, because if you choose them correctly, you can make a fortune both as your invested capital appreciates over the years—and as the quarterly dividend grows.
And now is the perfect time to do so because we’re coming up on a bunch of ex-dividend dates over the next few weeks. As you can see, there are plenty of promising dividend stocks to buy, but there are also many pitfalls here: AbbVie Inc. (ABBV), Cisco Systems, Inc. (CSCO), General Dynamics Corporation (GD) and Microsoft Corporation (MSFT).
