3 Dividend Stocks That Thrive in Both Bull and Bear Markets

With the 3.75% decline on Thursday, Feb. 8, 2018, the stock market entered correction territory, with the S&P 500 falling more than 10% from the all-time highs reached in late January. While this doesn't mean an end to the bull market's historic run, there is a whiff of uncertainty in the air, and volatility reigns supreme, making it a perfect time to pinpoint stocks that tend to do well during both rising and falling markets.

With that in mind, we asked three Motley Fool investors to identify income investments that could prosper regardless of the prevailing market conditions. They provided compelling arguments for Walmart Inc. (NYSE:WMT), Duke Energy Corporation (NYSE:DUK), and McDonald's Corporation (NYSE:MCD).
