Income Stocks
Income stocks are shares of companies offering steady income, usually through regular dividend payouts. Compared to other stocks, they carry lower risk, delivering moderate but reliable returns over time. While their price growth may lag, the consistently rising dividend yield compensates, appealing to investors seeking stability over speculation. These stocks suit those prioritizing predictable cash flow, like retirees, balancing modest capital appreciation with dependable income. Their lower volatility makes them a safer bet in uncertain markets, emphasizing dividend growth as the key return driver.
