Income and quality should always matter, but it’s markets like these when those characteristics really count.
Historically, since 1930, dividends have contributed about 40% of the S&P 500’s total return. Their input has varied widely from decade to decade, however. According to a recent Insights Report from the Hartford Funds, dividends played a large role in terms of their contribution to total returns.
What sort of a role will dividends play now?
We have a new guest on WEALTHTRACK with a long and distinguished track record of investing in high-quality, dividend-paying stocks. She is Clare Hart, who Morningstar calls “one of the industry’s most impressive managers.”
Hart has been the Lead Portfolio Manager of two highly-rated funds since 2004.
Hart will discuss the benefits of focusing on quality and dividends, particularly in a difficult market environment.
