Dividend stocks are always the investors’ darling as they provide steady income and act as a shield against market risks. These stocks are generally less volatile in nature and hence are dependable when it comes to long-term investment planning. Moreover, in a low interest rate environment, dividend paying stocks offer substantial yields on a regular basis.
It is hard to choose the right dividend stocks as it requires considering both the past performance of the company and its future prospects. If a stock has delivered strong performance in the past, but faces troubled times ahead, it should definitely not qualify as an investable pick. We note that an impressive current-year dividend yield and a strong dividend yield history are also important criteria for identifying strong dividend stocks. We have picked five stocks: Orchid Island Capital, Inc. (ORC), Saratoga Investment Corp. (SAR), Ciner Resources LP (CINR), Braskem S.A. (BAK) and Armada Hoffler Properties, Inc.(AHH).
