DIVIDEND PAYING STOCKS THE WAY TO GO!
As
their name suggests, dividend-paying stocks are stocks that pay you an income stream.
It’s a great way to get paid
now while waiting for your stocks, as a whole, to grow. Also, the income you receive
from dividends is only taxed at 15%.
All of this makes these stocks ideal for CAIM clients, women and baby
boomers approaching retirement, who want to
maximize their investments and
maintain a steady stream of income.
Dividend paying stocks provide them with the necessary growth to keep up
with inflation, as well as a cushion i.e. the quarterly dividend-payment, which
helps your portfolio grow even when stocks are out of favor!
BARRON’S AGREES
A recent Barron’s report called “10 for the
Money” supports CAIM’s focus
on dividend-paying stocks.
Rollercoaster share prices over the past two years have left many
investors understandably anxious and uncertain. Barron’s notes that while there’s plenty of time for the
young to make up big stock losses, for anyone who is recently retired, or plans
to do it soon, the 2009 rally has merely applied a Band Aid where a tourniquet
is more appropriate! Also, with
equity prices 30% below their 2007 highs and Americans living longer, chances
are high that many folks will outlive their portfolios’ ability to support
them.
The solution? Large cap,
high quality, dividend-paying and dividend growing stocks proclaims
Barron’s!
THE BENEFITS
Over 20 years (the period
most retirees are concerned with) dividend stocks often outpace the market on a
risk-adjusted basis. They offer
stable earnings and you can count on the dividend more than on capital gains or
price appreciation. Also, while they
don’t rise as much in whiplash rallies like the one we’re in, they also go down
less when the market buckles, according to Barron’s.
