15 BEST DIVIDEND STOCKS OF 2023

In this article, we discuss 15 best dividend stocks of 2023. You can skip our
detailed analysis of dividend stocks and their performance over the years, and
go directly to read 5 Best Dividend Stocks of 2023. 



Just when the stock market began recovering after suffering huge losses in 2022,
the recent bank crisis drew the market into the vortex of uncertainty all over
again. According to Federal Reserve’s March policy meeting, the Silicon Valley
Bank fallout is likely to push the US economy into a mild recession later this
year, as reported by CNBC. This is the first time in the high-interest rate
cycle that staff economists have forecast such a recession. While this recent
development sent global markets into a minor panic, investors are loading up on
income-generating stocks to stay afloat during this period.

High-interest rate periods generally fare well for dividend stocks as these
securities tend to be more resilient due to their strong cash flows and solid
balance sheets. Historically, dividend stocks have significantly represented the
market’s overall return, especially during high inflationary periods. Since
1930, dividends accounted for 54% of the stock market’s total return whenever
inflation has averaged 5% or more.



Companies with consistent dividend hikes become top choices for investors
because of their long-term growth potential and lower volatility. In fact,
dividend growers have produced better returns than the broader market in the
past. In 12 Dividend Kings To Buy For Safe Dividend Growth, we reported that
dividend growers delivered an annual return of 9.62% on average from 1972 to
2018, compared with a 7.30% return of the S&P 500. During this period,
non-dividend payers underperformed dividend growers and delivered an annual
average return of 2.40%.

Dividend stocks are also less volatile than other asset classes because of their
solid financials and proven track record of success. Investors who look for
stable sources of income may be more likely to hold onto their dividend-paying
stocks during market volatility, which can help stabilize the stock price and
reduce volatility. Historical analysis has shown that dividend stocks have
generated high returns with lower volatility over the years. From 1990 to 2022,
dividend growers delivered a 9.3% return to shareholders with a 14.5%
volatility. In comparison, non-dividend payers represented a 19.7% volatility
during this period, while returning 4%, as reported by Capital Group.

As dividend stocks are still gaining traction among investors, we have
shortlisted some of the best dividend stocks of 2023 in this article. Overall,
McDonald’s Corporation (NYSE:MCD), AbbVie Inc. (NYSE:ABBV), and JPMorgan Chase &
Co. (NYSE:JPM) are some of the prominent dividend stocks with strong dividend
policies.

billion.

Davis Advisers mentioned Applied Materials, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMAT) in its annual
2022 investor letter. Here is what the firm has to say:

> “If Berkshire represents “growing value” then Applied Materials, Inc.
> (NASDAQ:AMAT) might be said to represent “undervalued growth.” Founded more
> than a half century ago, Applied Materials has grown to be the largest
> supplier of manufacturing tools, services and software to the semiconductor
> industry. Holding more than 15,000 patents, Applied has become the
> irreplaceable supplier to the critical global growth industry, semiconductors.
> Because this company’s earnings can be uneven, short-sighted investors often
> label this company as “cyclical” and assign it a relatively low valuation.
> 
> We disagree and, having perused more than 50 years of data, conclude that
> Applied is unquestionably a growth company trading at a value price. Figure 8
> shows the two sustainable drivers of this growth. The green bars indicate that
> semiconductor manufacturers have grown industry revenue at 7.5% over the last
> decade, more than three times the growth of the U.S. economy over this same
> decade. The orange line indicates that the percentage of this revenue that the
> industry commits to capital spending has gradually risen from roughly 20% to
> 30%. Putting these two trends together, it should come as no surprise that
> Applied has grown revenue at a rate of 11%, and operating income at more than
> 19% over this same time period.
> 
> In the near term, the impact of the chip industry’s post-pandemic inventory
> correction, which could reduce equipment demand, may more than offset the
> benefit of recent supply chain issues that limited Applied Materials’ ability
> to meet customer demand. Longer term, geopolitical tensions between China and
> the U.S. are driving investment in potentially redundant chip production
> globally, while at the same time the U.S. and her allies are restricting
> export of leading edge production tools into China. Even though the near term
> is frustratingly veiled in uncertainty, the recent shortages and trade
> restrictions have firmly established that access to chip-production technology
> is essential to every major industrial economy. Given this, we see more
> opportunity than risk and estimate that Applied Materials could sell at about
> 10 times what the company could be earning three-to-five years from now.”

> was A. O. Smith Corporation (NYSE:AOS), the leading global manufacturer of
> residential and commercial-grade water heaters and boilers. The company saw a
> rebound in orders after a period of steady inventory destocking, which added

NEW SAMPLE ISSUE OF INSIDER MONKEY’S MONTHLY NEWSLETTER AND 1 FREE STOCK PICK

PUBLISHED ON APRIL 16, 2023 AT BY INAN DOGAN, PHD

Warren Buffett never mentions this but he is one of the first hedge fund
managers who unlocked the secrets of successful stock market investing. He
launched his hedge fund in 1956 with $105,100 in seed capital. Back then they
weren’t called hedge funds, they were called “partnerships”. Warren Buffett took
25% of all returns in excess of 6 percent. 

For example S&P 500 Index returned 43.4% in 1958. If Warren Buffett’s hedge fund
didn’t generate any outperformance (i.e. secretly invested like a closet index
fund), Warren Buffett would have pocketed a quarter of the 37.4% excess return.
That would have been 9.35% in hedge fund “fees”. 

Actually Warren Buffett failed to beat the S&P 500 Index in 1958, returned only
40.9% and pocketed 8.7 percentage of it as “fees”. His investors didn’t mind
that he underperformed the market in 1958 because he beat the market by a large
margin in 1957. That year Buffett’s hedge fund returned 10.4% and Buffett took
only 1.1 percentage points of that as “fees”. S&P 500 Index lost 10.8% in 1957,
so Buffett’s investors actually thrilled to beat the market by 20.1 percentage
points in 1957.

Between 1957 and 1966 Warren Buffett’s hedge fund returned 23.5% annually after
deducting Warren Buffett’s 5.5 percentage point annual fees. S&P 500 Index
generated an average annual compounded return of only 9.2% during the same
10-year period. An investor who invested $10,000 in Warren Buffett’s hedge fund
at the beginning of 1957 saw his capital turn into $103,000 before fees and
$64,100 after fees (this means Warren Buffett made more than $36,000 in fees
from this investor).

As you can guess, Warren Buffett’s #1 wealth building strategy is to generate
high returns in the 20% to 30% range.

We see several investors trying to strike it rich in options market by risking
their entire savings. You can get rich by returning 20% per year and compounding
that for several years. Warren Buffett has been investing and compounding for at
least 65 years.

So, how did Warren Buffett manage to generate high returns and beat the market?

In a free sample issue of our monthly newsletter we analyzed Warren Buffett’s
stock picks covering the 1999-2017 period and identified the best performing
stocks in Warren Buffett’s portfolio. This is basically a recipe to generate
better returns than Warren Buffett is achieving himself.

You can enter your email below to get our FREE report. In the same report you
can also find a detailed bonus biotech stock pick that we expect to return more
than 50% within 12-24 months. We initially share this idea in October 2018 and
the stock already returned more than 150%. We still like this investment.
