Dividend Stocks

Established companies that pay out profit regularly — the other side of the market from growth names.

A dividend stock is a different bet from a growth stock. Instead of wagering that the company will be far larger in a decade, the investor takes a regular payment out of existing profit — and usually gives up some of the upside in exchange.

Two mistakes are common. The first is chasing an unusually high yield, which often means the share price collapsed rather than that the payout is generous. The second is ignoring sustainability: whether the company generates enough cash to keep paying, or is borrowing to protect the streak.

The companies here tend to be large, established and less volatile, which is why they behave differently from the market during periods of stress.

Across the 15 names in this list that traded today, the average change was -0.12%. IBM led at 3.40%, and PG lagged at -2.01%. A spread that wide inside a single theme shows the move is not uniform, and that the companies are worth looking at individually rather than as a category.
