The fact is that there are still a bountiful amount of dividend gems to be ferreted out by smart investors.
I ran our screener and looked for those stocks that were down 10% in the past three months with dividend yields over 2%.
The stock list primarily comes from the utility, health care and consumer staples sectors. Each company’s stock price has suffered as more economically sensitive sectors have taken off, including financial, industrial and energy stocks.
