One of the best ways to make money in stocks is to buy dividend stocks. When inflation is running high, dividend stocks are an even better investment. According to Fidelity, dividends have accounted for 40% of the S&P 500's total returns since 1930. During high-inflation decades like the 1940s and 1970s, dividends have accounted for as much as 71% of the market's total returns. Companies that pay dividends need to have growing businesses that generate cash flows. With the recent market sell-off, many of these companies are trading at a discount to their historical values. Here are three of those companies.
These three companies trade at a discount as markets continue selling off. Walker & Dunlop (WD) provides financing in the multifamily housing market, including apartment buildings and multi-unit houses. If you've ever purchased extended warranties for your cellphone, appliance, or vehicle, there's a good chance you've done business with Assurant (AIZ). Cincinnati Financial (CINF) writes insurance policies for individuals and businesses across the property, automotive, and homeowners insurance markets.
