TipRanks’ analyst ranking service pinpoints Wall Street’s best-performing stocks, including AT&T and Diamondback Energy
The stock market has been coasting on enthusiasm as President Donald Trump takes the reins, but plenty of questions remain over tax cuts and tariffs. Dividend-paying stocks can offer investors some cushioning if the market becomes rocky.
Bonner noted that at the analyst day event, AT&T indicated that neither dividend hikes nor M&A are under consideration while the company invests in 5G and fiber broadband networks and continues to reduce its debt. That said, management is committed to protecting its dividend payments after reducing them by almost half in March 2022. Bonner highlighted that AT&T plans to return $40 billion to shareholders in 2025-2027 via $20 billion in dividends and $20 billion in share repurchases.
"A more defensive balance sheet also leaves CHRD well-positioned in a volatile oil price environment," said Janela.
