Overall, while I’m still bullish on the stock market, I also think that we are due for some near-term turbulence here. What’s the best thing to do to prepare for that turbulence? Buy dividend stocks with big yields, since those stocks tend to weather the storms better than other stocks, and also pay you for waiting. With that in mind, let’s take a look at seven dividend stocks with big yields that are worth considering here and now...
One could easily argue that telecom giant AT&T (NYSE:T) is the poster child for “best dividend stocks with big yields”. The yield on Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) stock isn’t great. It’s just 2.3%. But, that is a great yield for a company that has robust exposure to all of tomorrow’s important tech markets, including AI, cloud, data and IoT. Blue chip technology giant International Business Machines (NYSE:IBM) is similar to Intel in terms of uniquely combining stability and growth. Everyone loves to hype up Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) and Walmart (NYSE:WMT) in the retail scene. But, the truth is that this is a three horse race, and the dark horse here is Target (NYSE:TGT). The one fast-casual restaurant chain that has managed to consistently remain top dog across the globe is McDonald’s (NYSE:MCD). When it comes to stability, you don’t get much more stable than U.S. utility giant American Electric Power (NYSE:AEP). Smartphone chip giant Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM) has come under pressure recently.
