John Davison Rockefeller once said, "Do you know the only thing that gives me pleasure? It's to see my dividends coming in." People looking for regular income from stocks are most likely to be inclined toward those companies that have a track of consistent and incremental dividend payments. They are safer bets, particularly in a low-rate environment, as they provide a cushion during economic uncertainties.
We have picked five stocks that hold promise in a dwindling market. Not only do these stocks carry a favorable Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or #2 (Buy), but these also have a dividend yield of 3% or greater: American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. (AEO), Ford Motor Co. (F), Mattel, Inc. (F), Capella Education Co. (F) and Hersha Hospitality Trust (HT).
