Dividend-paying stocks are appealing because they have a track record of beating the broader stock market. Focusing on the most undervalued names of the S&P's so-called dividend aristocrats means investing in the most undervalued companies.
Wal-Mart (WMT), Abbott Labs (ABT), Kimberly-Clark (KMB), Coca-Cola (KO) and Eli Lilly (LLY) are five companies in the S&P 500 with the best dividend growth and earnings prospects. The companies mentioned here also offer downside protection, given their products can be considered recession-resistant. For those particularly inclined to high dividend payments, Kimberly-Clark and Eli Lilly stand out from the rest.
