It has been a quiet August on Wall Street by all accounts. Despite the continuing threat of a European debt crisis and the looming “fiscal cliff” at home, despite persistently high unemployment in the U.S. and fears of a slowdown in China, the stock market continues its march upward. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is up more than 8% on the year and more than 3% in the past 30 days.
Whether you’re looking for a low-risk way to ride the market rally or whether you’re looking for a safe place to park your cash, high-yield dividend stocks have a lot to offer. And these top 10 Dow dividend stocks are some of the best picks out there right now if you’re looking for investment ideas: JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM), General Electric (NYSE:GE), Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), Procter & Gamble (NYSE:PG), E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co. (NYSE:DD), Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ), Pfizer (NYSE:PFE), Merck (NYSE:MRK), Verizon (NYSE:VZ) and AT&T (NYSE:T).
