4 Telecom Dividend Stocks Will Help Your Portfolio

There is a nice debate on Wall Street right now about whether the market as a whole is overvalued or not. Well no matter what side of the fence you sit on in this debate, there will always be safe places for your money, if you know where to look. The telecom sector is quite interesting because not only do some telecom stocks offer upside in a down market, some of the telecom stocks are offering a tremendous value with dividends.

The telecom stocks that will help your portfolio are Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ), AT&T, Inc. (T), Frontier Communications Corp. (FTR) and lastly Vodafone Group (VOD). Each of these stocks offer upside in a market that can turn on a dime and they are all offering close to 5% yields or higher. Sure, three of these stocks are behemoths in the telecom industry and yes they all carry substantial debt because they are still building out infrastructure at a rapid pace. But stability is what you seek in a time when the market could be unwinding.
