It’s Time to Buy Dividend Stocks

With the escalating Eurozone-debt-contagion fears of recent weeks, a significant shift is taking place in the global stock-and-bond markets. As that differentiation plays out, such income-oriented plays as high-yielding dividend stocks, real estate investment trusts (REITS) and master-limited partnerships (MLPs) will prove to be major beneficiaries, experiencing a handsome run-up in price. Shrewd investors will move into those investments before their prices increase.

Investors considering these moves shouldn't dawdle: The global debt contagion emanating out of Europe could accelerate the afore-mentioned differentiation. Investors were reminded of these fears again yesterday (Monday), after the rescue of a regional bank in Spain added to concerns about the health of Europe's economy.
