Trump and others have cited negative interest rates in countries such as Germany and Japan, as reason enough for the Fed to take a more dovish tone. Nonetheless, yields on the 10-year U.S. Treasury sat at roughly 1.78% through late afternoon trading. With this in mind, we looked for strong, stable companies. We then added a dividend yield above the current 10-year U.S. Treasury’s payout to our criteria using the Zacks Stock Screener to help investors find stocks that look like solid buys given our current rate environment and economic picture.
Lockheed Martin (LMT), like all three companies on this list, needs little preamble. The firm posted impressive second quarter 2019 results. Procter & Gamble (PG) is one of the world’s largest makers of household goods, from Febreze and Swiffer to Head & Shoulders and Pampers. Coca-Cola (KO) is the most well-known name on this list and is one of the most recognizable brands in the world.
