2 Dividend Stocks to Buy and Never Sell

I bet that title got a few people scratching their heads. “High-yield stocks that you need to sell?" But there’s a good reason, and it’s not just clickbait. I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again: dividend yields are not everything. Sure, there’s a certain allure to getting 10% or more. It's even better if the yields go higher as time goes by.

3 Stock-Split Stocks to Buy Before They Soar as Much as 148%, According to Select Wall Street Analysts

The Associated Press

The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed to an all-time high, even as big tech companies weighed on the broader market, leading U.S. stock indexes to a mixed finish on Wall Street. The S&P 500 fell 0.3% Monday, remaining within 0.9% of its record set in July. The Nasdaq composite fell 0.9%, pulled down by several technology companies that tend to tip the market because of their big values. Nvidia lost 2.2%, Microsoft fell 0.8%, Amazon dropped 0.9%, Meta Platforms slid 1.3% and Tesla lost 3.2%. The Dow rose 0.2%, to 41,240, eclipsing its previous high set in mid-July. The average is less influenced by big tech, with only Apple and Microsoft among the most valuable “Magnificent Seven” stocks in the index. That helped limit the impact of the big tech decliners. The price of U.S. crude oil jumped 3.5% after Israel and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah traded heavy fire on Sunday, triggering potential supply worries.
