7 Top Dividend Stocks to Buy for Every Kind of Investor

Today’s look at the dividend world isn’t a look at broad-based “best bets,” but instead a look at different top dividend stocks that appeal to various types of investors — conservative, moderate and aggressive. A few of these businesses have enormous war chests and unshakable businesses that will be able to stand the test of time. Several of these stocks are a bit more volatile but also have far more room for growth. But all of them have a number of qualities that make them top dividend picks at the moment. Without further ado, here’s a look at seven dividend stocks for every type of investor.

Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) is one of the market’s most well-known buy-and-hold dividend stocks, and it actually offers slow and steady growth as well. Pfizer Inc. (PFE) has become a well-known dividend player over the years. Cisco Systems, Inc. (CSCO) just got a whole lot trickier. Shares were up 13% in 2017 and 27% over the past 12 months until Thursday, May 18, when it dropped nearly 8%. CyrusOne (CONE) yields a hair over 3.1% and has returned about 10% year-to-date. It’s up an impressive 34% over the past six months, too. The Blackstone Group L.P. (BX) rallied from $25 in 2014 to $38 in 2015, then fell back to the $25 mark in 2016 … before recovering to about $29 currently. Shares of Qualcomm, Inc. (QCOM) have had a tumultuous ride this year, down 14% in 2017. Finally, we come to our third aggressive pick … Tupperware Brands Corporation(TUP).
