Consistently stable cash flows benefit investors even if the capital appreciation in such stocks tends to be lower. Investment in these kinds of stocks can also have the effect of lowering a portfolio's volatility. In the context of markets turning bearish, having such high-dividend stocks in a portfolio translates into having highly valuable assets.
In this article, I pick three companies with solid and safe dividends for inclusion in an income portfolio. Over the years, these companies are famous for paying high dividends along with a strong track record. Each has displayed solid financials together with a strong investment strategy. These companies have distributed a considerable portion of their cash flows to the investors. With solid year-over-year financial performances they have an ability to raise their dividends in the future. These stocks are BreitBurn Energy Partners (BBEP), Main Street Capital Corporation (MAIN) and ConocoPhillips (COP).
