There's a lot on investors' minds at the moment, but according to Morgan Stanley, one type of investment might help put them at ease: dividend stocks. Dividend stocks consistently outperform non-dividend peers over time. But for investors hoping to find a safe harbor in today's stormy market, Wilson can help. The 47 stocks below all have dividend yields within the top 25% of yields by size across the market. Along with each stock is its ticker, sector, industry, last closing price, market cap, and Morgan Stanley analyst rating.

Markets could remain under pressure through the end of the year, and high dividend stocks are one option to help investors through the uncertainty, according to Morgan Stanley. Investors are also assessing pressures on the market driven by the surprise attack on Israel by Palestinian militant group Hamas over the weekend. To play another potential breakdown in the market, Morgan Stanley highlighted several dividend stocks that combine yield (how much a company pays out in dividends each year), dividend growth (how much that dividend grows over a period of time) and stability, and that look attractive on a three- to five-year basis. Morgan Stanley projects yields of 9.6% for Energy Transfer in 2024 and 9.9% for MPLX, a master limited partnership created out of Marathon Petroleum that operates crude oil and refined product pipelines. The bank's preference in tobacco is Philip Morris , whose 2024 dividend yield could be 5.5%, according to Morgan Stanley.

As volatility continues to punish the stock market, investors are forced to sit and watch their gains vanish. But there is one way for equity investors to stem the bleeding: dividend stocks. "Our economists are of the view that inflation will continue to slow from elevated levels over the next 12 months," Wilson wrote. "That backdrop is supportive of owning dividend-related factors and defensive dividend payers, in particular."

The hikes scared investors into thinking a recession would be on the way. But today, the labor market remains strong and inflation is under 4%, prompting rosier outlooks about the fate of the US economy. Rate hikes take time to work their way into the economy. But their main adversary going forward is going to be the Fed, with inflation still elevated. The Consumer Price Index is at 3.7% year-over-year, and core inflation, which the Fed watches closely, is even higher at 4.3%.

“Wherever a farm may be located, or whatever may be its production, fence, fence, fence, is the first, the intermediate, and the last consideration,” the farmer and journalist Sereno Edwards Todd wrote in 1860. Mike Wilson, a rancher in northern Washington State, uses it to keep his herds safe, as his father and grandfather did. Instead they joined a pilot program for a technology designed to fence in their cattle virtually rather than physically. It starts with two solar-powered base stations, about the size of an upright piano, topped with a 20-foot-tall radio antenna. If a cow approaches one of the invisible fence lines, her collar emits a series of warning beeps.

Fears of a recession this spring eventually gave way to confidence that the economy could stick a soft landing. How to invest for the rest of 2023Sentiment has been the driving force behind stock-market gains this year, Wilson wrote. The solution, Wilson wrote, is to gain exposure to both ends of the spectrum. To that end, Wilson compiled 37 stocks that Morgan Stanley analysts are overweight on. All the stocks are among the top 1,000 by market cap, are classified as growth stocks, and have low volatility, as measured by trailing 252-day volatility that is below the market median.

Market volatility (bottom half) spiked during the downturn but has steadily receded during the rebound despite a late-summer hiccup. Tim Hayes, Ned Davis ResearchHayes believes that a healthy reset shook out much of that euphoria without leaving lasting damage. History says this market rally has plenty of room to runThe final three months of the year have historically been the friendliest to stocks, Hayes said. Tim Hayes, Ned Davis Research"It doesn't follow the script precisely," Hayes said. The forthcoming market rally should broaden out, the strategist said, which should boost parts of the market that haven't participated as well, including economically sensitive small companies and sectors.

Investors would have made more money buying the S&P 500 than following Michael Burry's stock-market warnings, said Charlie Bilello, chief market strategist at Creative Planning. "Simply buying the S&P 500 instead of following Michael Burry's stock market warnings would have made an investor money each time with an average 6-month annualized gain of 34%. He was referring to gains delivered by the benchmark index in the periods that immediately followed a selection of Burry's tweets between 2019 and 2023. AdvertisementAdvertisementThe S&P 500 share index has climbed more than 16% so far in 2023, thanks in no small part to investor excitement over the rise of artificial-intelligence technologies. He's warned of an economic downturn since the first half of 2022, leading him to place a bet with a notional value of $1.6 billion against the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 last quarter.

The S&P 500 is priced for perfection and could plunge 25% if problems crop up, Mike Wilson says. Morgan Stanley's stock chief says the outlook for company earnings and the economy is pretty grim. The benchmark S&P 500 and tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite have rallied 17% and 33% respectively this year. He suggested a shock to the system of that kind could send the S&P 500 plummeting from nearly 4,500 points today to the low 3,000s — a drop of more than 25%.

He likes "defensive growth stocks," industrials, and energy stocks. Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson says the stock market's rally is likely running out of steam, and quickly. Also, on technicals, market breadth — or the share of stocks participating in the rally — is still weak. Morgan StanleyIn addition to over-extended technicals, Wilson said deteriorating fundamentals threaten the market. In particular, he's concerned about "real" consumer spending growth — or growth that accounts for inflation — which he and Morgan Stanley economists believe will dip negative year-over-year in the fourth quarter of 2023.

The stock market is having an oversized influence on how investors think about the economy. "Late in the cycle when the data is conflicting, sentiment can be influenced by stock prices more than usual. The recession narrative has swung back and forth between hard landing, soft landing, and no landing at all, and the ongoing stock market rally has reinforced some of the more bullish views of the economy. AdvertisementAdvertisementBut the stock market rally has been driven by hard economic data and corporate earnings, too. Wilson recommended investors focus on owning defensive growth stocks, particularly industrial stocks relative to consumer discretionary stocks.

JPMorgan's Dubravko Lakos and Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson both see the end of the market rally. Higher-for-longer Fed interest rates and a potential hard landing for the economy risk dragging equities. And Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson said the latest evidence of a softening market was Nvidia's blowout earnings beat this week and the failed market rally that followed. "I can't think of any better news then what we got from [Nvidia] on Wednesday...and we had a failed rally. "They look for the market to tell them whether it's going to be a hard landing or not.

Dividend stocks have long been a favorite of BMO's since their yields offer protection against heightened market volatility. And to have sufficient dividend growth and yield, companies must have a higher dividend yield than the S&P 500's, and it must be growing at a faster rate than the market's yield. Additional qualifications include having a below-market dividend payout ratio, a free cash flow yield higher than its dividend yield, and no dividend cuts in the prior five years, according to the note. "By focusing solely on high current dividend yield investors could be missing potential recovery and/or dividend growth opportunities." After outlining its barbell strategy and methodology, BMO listed eight stocks in each group that fit those descriptions and are worth considering.

Morgan Stanley economists see a stronger housing market cycle and interest rates being cut in 2024. Luckily, Morgan Stanley strategists think the housing market is finally reaching a turning point. That will mark the end of the current craziness and the beginning of a new housing market cycle. As for the US industries and stocks connected to the housing market, Wilson noted that tomorrow's market will bring about different winners and losers. Higher interest rates mean higher mortgage rates, and higher mortgage rates mean lower demand for mortgages.

The S&P 500 is riding one of its best years since 1927, thanks to the AI hype. It's only been 10 times since the 1920s that the benchmark index has performed so well, market veteran Jim Bianco said.
