Investors never take kindly to a 2.45% sell-off, like the one we saw in the S&P 500, and they may be looking to shift more aggressive positions into dividend-paying large caps, which will remain in demand as rates will continue to stay low through 2017. We screened the Merrill Lynch research universe for stocks rated Buy, paid a dividend higher than the 30 year U.S. Treasury, which is at a 2.4% yield, and had the best volatility /risk rating. We found four that make good sense now for worried equity investors.
AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T) is the world’s largest provider of pay TV, with TV customers in the United States and 11 Latin American countries. In the United States, the AT&T wireless network has the nation’s self-described strongest 4G LTE signal and most reliable 4G LTE. Coca-Cola Co. (NYSE: KO) is the world’s largest beverage company, refreshing consumers with more than 500 sparkling and still brands. Led by Coca-Cola, its portfolio features 20 billion-dollar brands, including Diet Coke, Fanta, Sprite, Coca-Cola Zero, vitaminwater, Powerade and Minute Maid. This top company remains a solid large cap pharmaceutical to Buy. Eli Lilly and Co. (NYSE: LLY) is a global health care company with numerous core products in a number of primary-care pharmaceutical markets. Procter & Gamble Co. (NYSE: PG) is a solid consumer staples stock for conservative investors to consider.
