Dividend Stocks on Sale Now

For years, investors have jumped at the chance to buy dividend stocks. Now the market is giving you a chance to buy many of your favorites at bargain-basement prices -- and even though stocks are down again today, the bargains may not last for very long. It's been years since we've seen this much uncertainty in the financial markets.

Uncertainty may be bad for your current investments, but it's great if you have cash and are trying to figure out how to get into the market. Many have targeted dividend-paying stocks for their new investing money, as their combination of solid current income and good growth prospects -- combined with some defensive properties that help many of them hold up well during downturns -- is perfectly suited to the current market environment.
