Investors often turn to dividend-yielding stocks during market turbulence, focusing on companies with high free cash flows and substantial dividends. Analysts have recently provided ratings on several high-yield consumer staples stocks, including Walgreens Boots Alliance and Altria, highlighting various price target adjustments and company news. Quality stocks in sectors such as FMCG and IT, including Marico and Asian Paints, are recommended for portfolios in a bear market despite recent underperformance. Business Development Companies (BDCs) are also attractive for their high dividend yields, with structures similar to REITs and mandates to pay out 90% of taxable income as dividends. Efficiency measures like receivables turnover and operating margin are crucial for assessing a company’s profitability potential, spotlighting stocks like TransMedics Group and Iamgold.
