6 High-Quality Dividend Bargains For High-Income Investors

Retirees want their portfolios to provide safe, consistent, reliable income that grows faster than the pace of inflation. 

Retirees want investments that will protect their nest egg, allow them to sleep easy at night, and provide steady income. Dividend stocks perfectly match retirement investor needs. 

Dividend stocks can also lead to early retirement. Investing in high quality dividend growth stocks provides retirees with consistent, reliable, growing dividend income. But… Not all dividend stocks are created equal. Some are high risk – high yield stocks. 

They can be appealing to retirees, but they are dangerous. The last thing you need in retirement is for your nest egg to get scrambled. Other dividend stocks have fantastic growth potential and a high degree of safety – but have very low yields.

From time to time, stocks go on sale. Over the last year, the S&P 500 has remained roughly unchanged, even as the business of many companies has improved.

For that reason, investors looking for a bargain have many stocks to choose from. Let's take a look at six promising companies trading at modest valuations.

These are my ideas...
