Top US Dividend Stocks To Watch In August 2024
Reviewed by Simply Wall St
As of late August 2024, U.S. stock markets have edged higher, with major indices like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite closing slightly up amid a holding pattern ahead of Nvidia's highly anticipated earnings report. With economic indicators showing mixed signals and market participants closely watching for signs from the Federal Reserve on interest rate cuts, dividend stocks can offer a measure of stability and income in uncertain times.
