Summary
- The Fed is on the inflation-fighting war path, interest rates are soaring, and stocks are melting down. Investor sentiment is at multi-decade lows.
- Once this bear market is finally over, stocks are likely to 4X within the next decade, but getting to the other side of this market turmoil is hard for many.
- High-yield low volatility blue chips like KMB, CLX, NVS, FTS, NVS, RBGLY, TU, and UGI can help you sleep well at night today and retire in safety and splendor tomorrow.
- They yield a very safe 4.2%, have an average dividend growth streak of 28 years, a BBB+ credit rating, and are likely to deliver 10% long-term returns, just as they have for 26 years.
- They are down a peak 10% this year, half as much as the market, and fell just 25% in the Great Recession, half as much as the S&P. Combined with a prudent mix of stocks and hedge funds, you can achieve 4% safe yield, 8% to 9% long-term returns, and 66% smaller bear market declines than either a 60/40 or the S&P 500.
