With Markets Crashing, This Dividend Aristocrat Is Set to Outperform

If you’ve paid any attention to the financial news lately, you’d know that market sentiment has changed. This shouldn’t come as a surprise; we haven’t had a proper correction in a long time, and stock investors are ready to avoid risk at any triggering event. So, what should investors do in this kind of market environment? My suggestion is to go with safe income stocks.

And in the case of Kimberly Clark Corp (NYSE:KMB), the dividends are actually increasing. For those not in the know, Kimberly Clark is a consumer products company headquartered in Dallas, Texas. It operates through three business segments: “Personal Care,” “Consumer Tissue,” and “K-C Professional.” The company was founded more than a century ago and has built a solid market position in the consumer packaged goods industry. Many of its products have gone on to become household names, such as “Kleenex,” “Kotex,” and “Huggies”—just to name a few. Kimberly Clark runs a global business. It has operations in 36 countries and its products are sold in more than 175 countries around the world.
