While investors who are looking for outsized returns bet on companies with big growth potential, investors who are looking for steady returns and want a little more safety tend to favor stocks with less short-term growth potential, but a longer track record of solid performance. Dividend stocks are another favorite target for investors as they provide a steady stream of cash into your portfolio.
None of these stocks is going to double overnight, but they are all steady dividend payers: Aircastle (AYR), Reynolds America (RAI), Hospitality Properties Trust (HPT), Peoples United Financial (PBCT), Regal Entertainment Group (RGC) and Sun Life Financial (SLF).
