Needless to say, the stock market can be a very cruel mistress. Companies can report great numbers, but if the guidance is light? Look out! So what are patient long-term investors to do? The bottom line is stay with strong companies paying big dividends. If you do have to wait for fundamentals to resurface and come around, at least you have the comfort of consistent dividends coming in to help weather any temporary storm.
We screened the Merrill Lynch research data base for stocks yielding at least 4% that have been oversold, and that are rated Buy at the firm. We found four that make good sense for investors now, and in the future: Enterprise Products Partners L.P. (NYSE: EPD), Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE), Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ: QCOM) and Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE: VZ). For worried growth and income investors, all these top stocks make good sense for more aggressive growth and income portfolio. The total return potential is solid, and the downside risk is far less than with momentum stocks. Plus, add in the very oversold status, and the upside could be stellar for patient investors.
