With the
markets warming up to the reality of a Donald Trump presidency and
administration, some people have become nervous about dividend-paying stocks as
they see higher interest rates and inflation ahead. While the bond proxy
sectors like real estate investment trusts and utilities may hold less appeal
as they are very slow growers, other sectors like consumer staples and telecoms
still make sense since they can continue to grow market share.
We screened
the Merrill Lynch research database for stocks with the firms best volatility
rating, and solid growing dividends that were rated Buy. We found five that
growth and income investors could buy now, and put in their portfolios forever.
What
investors will want to not ignore is that some of these are still well off of
highs. The post-election rally has been targeting many infrastructure and
higher interest rate winners, so some of these may be overlooked.
