Look for Dividend Stocks

Dividend stocks have been hanging out with the popular kids in the fixed income class lately, so much so that some investors worry that their egos – and prices – are a bit too inflated. Not necessarily so, says DWS Investments, the retail asset management arm of Deutsche Bank:

“While high-dividend-yielding stocks may not maintain their popularity, we do not expect a quick reversal of those factors leading to their attractiveness—namely, a quest for yield by investors across asset classes and the perceived defensiveness of high-dividend-yielding companies in an environment of macroeconomic concerns. Investors who get out of high-dividend-yielding stocks early could potentially leave money on the table.”
