Even if the stock market edged higher, the market volatility is apparent. CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) is up more than 15% over the month. Additionally, slow job growth in November is not likely to deter the Fed’s plan of an interest rate hike next year.
Investors looking to hedge against the market volatility and secure a stable stream of income could invest in these high-yielding dividend stocks of AbbVie Inc . (NYSE:ABBV), AT&T Inc. (T), and Cardinal Health Inc. (NYSE:CAH). These stocks are positioned in the current S&P 500 dividend aristocrats list.
