Perhaps because I have time on my side, I get excited when the market sells off like it did a few weeks ago. I know that I’ll be able to buy quality stocks at a lower price. That’s especially interesting to income investors who might be able to pick up an extra half a percentage point or so of yield with no real changes to a company’s ability to generate cash.
When stocks decline, one of the first places I look is the list of S&P Dividend Aristocrats. Dividend Aristocrats are stocks that are members of the S&P 500 that have increased their dividends every year for the past 25 years. And their track records are welcome signs in a tough economy.
