T - 3 Dividend Stocks You Love to Hate
It's hard to get a good return on your money these days if you're a conservative fixed-income investor. Treasury bills, notes, and bonds are yielding a pittance, and you'll need a monocle to make out the payouts on CDs and money market funds. This is where income investors tend to approach dividend-paying stocks if they're willing to stomach the risks.
Altria (NYSE: MO), AT&T (NYSE: T), and China Mobile (NYSE: CHL) are three such stocks. They're yielding more than 5%, and they're all trading lower in 2020, bucking the otherwise buoyant market. In short, they're out of favor. But the potential for capital gains to go along with the steady trickle of distributions makes them tempting considerations right now.
