5 Best Dividend Stocks to Watch in January 2017

It has been a phenomenal year for the U.S. stock market. All three major indices posted sizable gains. Moreover, many high-paying dividend stocks helped boost the yield of income investors’ portfolios. As dividend investors, we don’t usually pay too much attention to what the market is doing. However, there are quite a few dividend-paying stocks with major upside potential going into the New Year. So let’s take a look at the five best dividend stocks to watch in January 2017...

Income investors are no stranger to Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) stock. With a 4.7% dividend yield, it is one of the high-dividend-paying stocks on the market. By now, many people have realized that Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock has the potential to be a great income play. While the overall stock market has surged quite a bit this year, it was a different story for Walt Disney Co (NYSE:DIS) stock. Even though Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) is not making a virtual reality headset or an electric car directly, there is still plenty to look forward to from the chipmaker. As consumers, we know that quality products seldom go on sale. That’s why when something as solid as Procter & Gamble Co (NYSE:PG) stock is having a bit of a hiccup, it deserves the attention of income investors.
