It seems like the investing-style-du-jour involves dividend-paying stocks, with all the chatter on the boards and blogs lately. In a lemming-like flight to safety, many investors have piled into dividend-paying stocks, perceiving that they offer income safety, as well as the opportunity for growth, and this has driven the price of some of those stocks up, and the yield down.
I have examined dozens of recent articles about dividend-paying stocks, and run screens on close to a hundred companies, in an effort to winnow the list down to just the few most stable, most dependable, best opportunity stocks I feel should be the foundation for any dividend portfolio. They are: McDonald's (MCD), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), Proctor & Gamble (PG), Chevron (CVX), Kinder Morgan Energy Partners (KMP), PepsiCo (PEP), Automatic Data Processing (ADP) and AFLAC Inc (AFL).
