Short-dated Treasury debt and government-insured money-market funds have seen an explosion in cash infusions, and likely they will continue to gather more as rates for the two-year Treasury and short-dated government debt all yield more than 5%. In addition, many money market funds (insured by the FDIC to up to $250,000) are yielding 4.5% and more with daily liquidity. Certificates of deposit for one to three years are also yielding over 5%, but you can pay a penalty for early withdrawal. All this has come to fruition over the past year and a half as interest rates have soared from 0.0% to 5.5% for federal funds.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The key for stock and bond investors is that inflation, which has spiked some from soaring oil prices, has been pulled way down from 9.1% in the summer of 2022. Eventually, the Federal Reserve will lower interest rates to get the economy moving, likely late in 2024, if not earlier. Investors that have higher-yielding stocks and bonds could see a big rally when those rates start coming down.</p><p>We screened our 24/7 Wall St. dividend and value screen for stocks with among the largest dependable dividends that could rally sharply when rates do start to fall.

In addition, it leases land and operates a coal loading terminal on the Ohio River at Mt. Vernon, Indiana.

PMUSA enjoys a 51% share of the U.S. cigarette market, led by its top cigarette brand Marlboro.</p><p>In June, Altria purchased NJOY Holdings, which makes electronic cigarettes and vaping products, for a $2.75 billion consideration. Altria also owns over 10% of Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world’s largest brewer, which some feel is worth more than $10 billion and may be a segment of the company that could be sold. Given the public relations issues the company has faced this year, it could very well be on the chopping board.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">The company has increased its dividend for 52 consecutive years and just announced another increase effective October 10, when the dividend moves to $0.98 per share from $0.94.</p><p>Shareholders receive an 8.82% dividend.

With consumers loading up credit card debt at very high interest rates, and the economy likely to slip into recession next year, the Fed can only hold a hard line for so long before rates start to come back down. When they do, stocks that pay big dividends and longer maturity Treasury and corporate debt could see big moves higher.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1620372341666","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Why These 7 Stocks With Dependable Dividends as High as 14% Could Soar in 2024</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nWhy These 7 Stocks With Dependable Dividends as High as 14% Could Soar in 2024\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-09-15 22:52 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://247wallst.com/investing/2023/09/14/why-these-7-stocks-with-dependable-dividends-as-high-as-14-could-soar-in-2024/3/><strong>24/7 wall street</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>The newest rage in investing, for many who are not chasing artificial intelligence stocks, has been going to the safest possible investments.

With consumers loading up credit card debt at very high interest rates, and the economy likely to slip into recession next year, the Fed can only hold a hard line for so long before rates start to come back down. When they do, stocks that pay big dividends and longer maturity Treasury and corporate debt could see big moves higher.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":331,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":[],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"EN","currentLanguage":"EN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"andRepostAutoSelectedFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":36,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ORIG"},"commentList":[],"hasMoreComment":false,"orderType":2}
