My pick is $BlackRock(BLK)$. I prefer its combination of scale, recurring fee income and long-term growth exposure through ETFs and private markets. The US$5.73 dividend is attractive, but I would rather own BLK for business quality and compounding than chase the much higher but more cyclical shipping yields.
Analyst consensus is also constructive, with an external S&P Global consensus target around US$1,321. I would cross-check the exact target under Tiger Trade's Analysis tab since its figure may differ.
For this week, $UnitedHealth(UNH)$ interests me. It goes ex-dividend on 14 Sep at US$2.32/share. I would view the dividend as a bonus rather than the main reason to buy. For dividend investing, underlying earnings and dividend sustainability matter more to me than simply picking the highest yield.
