Dividend-paying stocks are a dependable way for investors to get paid during shaky market periods, when other avenues for profit, such as capital gains, are more uncertain. These stocks are considered to provide a hedge against inflation, making them popular investment choices in the current market. On average, they tend to be far less volatile than their non-dividend paying counterparts. A dividend stream that is reinvested and utilizes the power of compound interest can also be a formidable builder of wealth.
