If I Could Only Buy 7 Dividend Stocks…

If I Could Only Buy 7 Dividend Stocks… these would be stocks to buy today!

If I were to go back to my early days of dividend investing, I would make a dividend investing strategy which calls for focusing on dividend growth stocks, scaling a MASSIVE position with a dividend ETF like SCHD or the VYM ETF along side a QQQ or QYLD. On top of that, I would have a longer term focus for my dividends and income instead of solely focusing on passive income 2024 or dividend income in the year i was investing. After all, the best investors understand how to make money which is over decades not overnight. Finally, I would ensure my dividend investing strategy 2024 called for focusing on the best stocks to buy now as well as the best dividend stocks to buy now and hold forever!

The Fed's talk of interest rate cut leaves me pondering what stocks to buy now and when do I sell? I'm unsure how to properly allocate my money to achieve an optimal portfolio in this present economy, my goal is $3m for retirement.

[GillerHeston]

I would think that a major benefit of dividend investing is that calculating portfolio size needed is not relevant. We don't care about the value of the portfolio. We care about the sustainable income it pays. As you invest you can gradually see the income rise as you invest more and pull the retirement trigger when it's high enough regardless of the market sentiment.

Recently bought some recommended stocks and now they are just penny stocks. There seems to be more negative portfolios in the last 3rd half of 2023 with markets tumbling, soaring inflation, and banks going out of business. My concern is how can the rapid interest-rate hike be of favor to a value investor, or is it better avoiding stocks for a while?

Its a good exercise to to pick/look at one's top 7 div stocks. My favs are: NVDA, AAPL, AVGO, IRM, ABBV, COST, MAIN. Mostly in order of perfomance

[TheDGICrab]

Excellent picks Ari, although I have to ask, why AAPL over MSFT?"

[ahmedelshahawi]

damn nice transition between stocks, earned a sub

[pakanatipraveen]

Hi Ari, what is your opinion about Abbvie (for a dividend stock)

[amygabbard]

My 7 - ABBV, MSFT, PGR, WM, COST, AVGO, MA

[jarc]

There are all great picks! I would probably swap WM for PEP. Everyone has to eat and the dividend is higher.

[williammulcare]

Most of these picks have low Div yields. They are also very expensive for someone starting out. My question is why invest in an under 2% Div yield stock instead of investing in high yield savings account for 4%?? What are your thoughts on Ohi, Mmm, chevron, Epd?

[leevillafane]

This question is tricky. I'm one of those people who has a portfolio with more than 45 individual stock positions, am always buying something of value, you understand. The one stock I absolutely COVET is WM, but I'm waiting for $185-190 level. Obviously, I would not need the small dividend, but it would complete the "circular" trash economy because I already own AMCR. Check it out! I probably got it covered in one of my etf's but I want to
own WM individually. In this case, is greed good?! All your picks are solid. Keep up the good work.

Hi Ari.
Hope you crushed it past few weeks if traded. Some great opportunities both directions. I started a few new positions

[AstridJohansen-z]

I am at the beginning of my "investment journey" I plan to put 185K into dividend stocks so that I will be making up to 30% per year in dividend returns. Any advice for stocks that can outperform the S&P500 this 2024?

[bartdierickx]

7 dividend stocks to buy and hold forever? I'd pick 7 strong conglomerates. They're inherently diversified which circumvents the fact you should buy stocks, not ETFs, and the fact you're limited to 7 holdings. Most strong conglomerates have exposeren to many industries and markets. They're less Likely to be disrupted.

Think Unilever, J&J, first pacific, ...

[dmitriyzhernoviy]

That's good but we are waiting on a review of top finance books recommendation

[Umpire]

Own AAPL, GOOGL and LMT. However, do you think cryptocurrency could put a damper on Visa? Other than that, love the picks.

[royvera]

Love your info. Any suggestions for how to get started. My budget is $1500 a month. Do I do auto vs manual. I have ten years before I retire.

[TipRanksTM]

Great video, Ari, and exceptional stock picks for the long-term investor. The key is to invest into quality as you shared!

[navsofour]

You need millions to retire on these, and valuations are ATH.
