There is always a good side and bad side to the situation when the markets are hitting new all-time highs, especially when it seems like a daily occurrence. The good thing is the statement from your broker looks better, and so does your 401(k). The bad side is that if you have money to put to work, you are nervous about putting it in now, and with good reason. The S&P 500 is up almost 9% since the election, and at some point the sellers will certainly step in.
We screened the Merrill Lynch research data base for stocks that are rated Buy, pay a dividend and haven’t gone parabolic this year. We found five that make good sense for 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. Walt Disney Co. (NYSE: DIS) is down for the year and may be offering investors the best entry point in some time. General Electric Co. (NYSE: GE) is a highly diversified, global industrial corporation. Home Depot Inc. (NYSE: HD) is the world’s largest home improvement specialty retailer, with 2,270 retail stores in all 50 states. McDonald’s Corp. (NYSE: MCD) is the world’s leading global foodservice retailer, with over 36,000 locations serving approximately 69 million customers in over 100 countries each day.
