Dear Reader,
The trade war reignited last week, as we all heard of the 25% tariffs placed on Chinese imports took hold. As these tariffs begin to wreak havoc on the dollar, inflation, the prices consumers pay, and the stock market, there may be a way to profit.
A few dividend stocks could be beneficial to buy as the trade war ramps up, sucking money from the economy. The most important thing to keep in mind is simple economics: U.S. companies will be paying more for goods and passing those prices on to consumers. It hits China, too, but the lion’s share is out of U.S. pocketbooks.
Because the cost of goods will rise, it’s a good idea to add some income to your portfolio.
Dividend Stocks to check out:
Blackstone Group (NYSE:BX) – a private equity firm that specializes in alternative investments (like real estate, infrastructure, etc), hedge funds and investment funds, including closed-end funds , for institutions and high-net-worth individuals. Its current dividend is a healthy 5.5% in the past year, and that’s on top of a nearly 25% run for the stock in the past 12 months. Blackstone Group is also build for a slow economy.

Darden Restaurants (NYSE:DRI) – sold its iconic Red Lobster seafood chain about 5 years ago now, and it hasn’t looked back, it still owns Olive Garden and LongHorn Steakhouse chains. Its 33% return is impressive, but not surprising, and its reliable 2.5% dividend isn’t a earth shattering, however, it shows that the company is investor friendly and that it can deliver, come what may.
Realty Income (NYSE:O) – is a real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns and operates properties for some of the biggest retail names in the business. It generally operates stand alone properties. It’s top 5 tenants, in order, are Walgreens, 7 Eleven, FedEx, Dollar General, and LA Fitness. It also pays it’s rock solid 4% dividend monthly!
Kinder Morgan (NYSE:KMI) – an energy infrastructure company. What that means is it’s a major midstream energy company. KMI stock, which is up 18% for the year, is paying out a healthy and sustainable 5.1% dividend. If slow and steady economic growth continues, so will KMI’s upward trek.
Those are the four dividend stocks I suggest you check out if you’re looking to generate some income and beat the trade war. These are all great long-term foundation stocks that will likely not be impacted nearly as much as others during a full-blown trade war.
There could also be time for the trade war to work itself out, but I don’t suggest you hold your breath, I suggest you prepare for possibly the worst, as China has just announced tariffs on some U.S. imports beginning June 1.

James Davis
