In volatile markets, it makes sense to own passive income-generating stocks. As we move into 2025, there are several reasons why it may be a good time to look at high-yield dividend stocks.
To begin with, the Federal Reserve has started lowering interest rates. And lower rates—even if the pace of rate cuts is slower than many aggressive investors would like—make dividend stocks more appealing because their yields often exceed returns available from U.S. Treasuries.
In addition, after the Federal Reserve indicated that rate cuts would likely proceed at a slower pace in 2025, many high-yield dividend stocks dipped in price. And, as investors know, when the price of a stock drops, the dividend yield rises. That may be an attractive set-up for investors.
In this special presentation, we highlight seven high-yield dividend stocks that offer generous passive income and reasonable share price growth in 2025.
