Dividend stocks are an attractive option in any economic cycle, and at times like these, with inflation here and recession looming, stocks in sectors that traditionally provide a particularly good defense against downturns might be doubly so.
That's why I'm doubling down on a couple of real estate stocks I own now and will soon be buying shares of a couple of big names in the utilities and telecommunications businesses. They each have good dividend records and with their current share prices, a nice yield, too.
They are Agree Realty (NYSE: ADC) , Gladstone Commercial (NASDAQ: GOOD) , Verizon Communications (NYSE: VZ) , and Consolidated Edison (NYSE: ED) .
