6 Dividend Stocks Whip Inflation
"The hot new investment theme isn't socially nuanced crypto space finance or metaverse charging networks for virtual vehicles. It's dividends-cash payments to shareholders.
To find more dividend growers, Barron's used an approach inspired by the Federal Reserve's so-called dot plot, or path of expected interest rate hikes . We screened the S&P 500 for companies that analysts predict will increase payments nicely in the years ahead. Here are six." - By Jack Hough Updated April 24, 2022 / Original April 22, 2022

The Dividend Dogs Rule
Stocks earned the "dog" moniker by exhibiting three traits: (1) paying reliable, repeating dividends, (2) their prices fell to where (3) yield (dividend/price) grew higher than their peers. Thus, the highest yielding stocks in any collection became known as "dogs." More precisely, these are, in fact, best called, "underdogs".

The distinction between five low-priced dividend dogs and the general field of ten reflected Michael B. O'Higgins' "basic method" for beating the Dow. The scale of projected gains based on analyst targets added a unique element of "market sentiment" gauging upside potential. It provided a here-and-now equivalent of waiting a year to find out what might happen in the market. Caution is advised, since analysts are historically only 20% to 90% accurate on the direction of change and just 0% to 15% accurate on the degree of change.
The net gain/loss estimates above did not factor in any foreign or domestic tax problems resulting from distributions. Consult your tax advisor regarding the source and consequences of "dividends" from any investment.
