The stock market volatility of the past several months looks like it could stick around for a while, forcing investors to be ever more vigilant about how to position their portfolios. "Stay defensive, be in low beta stocks, and achieve returns through dividends," counsels Mark Tepper, a financial advisor with Strategic Wealth Partners in Seven Hills, Ohio.
Dividend-paying stocks are one of the more popular recipes for coping with uncertainty. U.S. companies are hoarding cash, making quarterly dividend payments to shareholders currently a much more reliable source of returns than capital appreciation.
