2022 Half-Year Recap: Are dividend stocks a better bet in a bear market?
Hey mooers!
2022 has been rough for major indices, so many investors may wonder if another recession will begin. But on the bright side, lower prices might allow you to buy more shares with the same amount of money, which gives you more dividends.
Dividend stocks are companies that make regular distributions to shareholders, usually in the form of cash. Earning income from your stocks is the point of the dividend investing strategy.
Yield isn't everything when it comes to finding the best dividend stocks. Stability also matters. That's why income investors may find steady dividend increases crucial over the long haul. Here's the list of 10 companies, sorted by the number of consecutive years of dividend growth (data as of June 10, 2022):

Think of dividend stocks as little money trees. Every share is a tree that gives you fruits (dividends), but selling the stock is like chopping down that tree — it no longer gives you anything.
