5 Goldman Sachs Conviction List Growth Stocks to Buy Also Pay Big Dividends
May 7, 2021 7:45 am
As the aging bull market presses ahead, it is pretty easy to see there has been a big rotation out of growth and momentum stocks and into value and cyclical ones. Given the massive move since the market lows of March 2020, many investors sense that it is time to move to stocks that still have growth potential going forward but also pay a solid dividend. Despite some hand wringing over higher interest rates, they remain near generational lows across the board.
We decided to screen the Goldman Sachs Americas Conviction List, which is a collection of the top equity ideas at the firm, looking for stocks that paid a solid and dependable dividend that was higher than the S&P 500 yield of 1.45% and the 30-year U.S. Treasury bond of 2.23%.
We found five that look like outstanding total return ideas now, and all are positioned well for the rest of 2021 and beyond. It is important to remember that no single analyst report should be used as a sole basis for any buying or selling decision.
