Play Slowdown with Dividend Stocks

Goldman Sachs downgraded its estimate of U.S. economic growth. But Kate Warne, investment strategist at Edward Jones, and Bill Greiner, president and chief investment officer at Scout Investments, told CNBC that there's still opportunity for the careful investor.

"We think that right now investors ought to be putting money into dividend-paying stocks that have the potential for dividend increases," she said. "In a slow growth environment — particularly after we've seen riskier stocks do well — they're attractively valued and we think they're a better opportunity than other parts of the market," Warne said.
