Nearly the entire stock market is under pressure at the moment. Technology, healthcare, retail — it doesn’t matter. Even the safety we find in dividend stocks is under assault. In fact, almost everything is under pressure right now, with the exception of energy stocks. Overall, dividend stocks aren’t inherently safe or dependable. You have to do the actual work of finding those hidden gems across Wall Street. However, when you do locate those holdings, they can help you sleep a little better at night. And it’s not just due to the dividend yield, but also because the stocks tend to be very stable and consistent businesses.
Thus, it’s important to remember that when you’re buying stocks, you’re buying a stake in a company — no matter how small your holding is. So, with that in mind, here are a handful of quality dividend stocks that investors should consider buying on the current dip: Ford (NYSE:F), Starbucks (NASDAQ:SBUX), Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM), Realty Income (NYSE:O), Federal Realty (NYSE:FRT), Target (NYSE:TGT) and Lowe’s (NYSE:LOW).
