I want to talk today to a specific audience: current or soon-to-be retirees who have done a great job of saving for retirement but don't want to see their nest egg disappear as they enjoy their golden years. The backbone of any retirement portfolio is a collection of solid, dividend-paying stocks. It's all the better if those stocks are relatively low-risk. Here I'm going to look at three different stocks that are as boring as they get. They deal with soup, jellies, and paint, among other things...
But for low-risk investors, boring is good. And so is an uber-safe dividend payout. That's why I think all three of these are worthy of consideration. And if you're in doubt, these three stocks -- J.M. Smucker (NYSE:SJM), Campbell Soup (NYSE:CPB), and Sherwin-Williams (NYSE:SHW) -- have absolutely smashed the S&P 500's return of 100% since 2000.
