Forget Gold, Buy Dividends - 3 Great Places To Buy Income
Gold is experiencing a strong rally, with rising demand due to economic uncertainty and market volatility. However, despite its appeal as a safe haven, I prefer dividend stocks over gold. Gold has a long history of preserving wealth, but it lacks the consistent returns and cash flow that dividend stocks provide. I believe high-quality dividend stocks are better investments. Real estate, energy, and utilities offer the highest yields, and I particularly favor midstream energy companies and safe net lease REITs. These stocks offer steady income and growth potential.

GDX: Expect The Outperformance To Continue
GDX, the largest precious metals mining ETF, has outperformed the market, up 22% YTD, despite recent market turbulence and substantial outflows. GDX has underperformed gold over 1, 3, and 5 years, suggesting more room for growth, especially with a low forward P/E ratio around 13. The higher tariff environment and economic contraction fears have led to market liquidation, but gold and gold miners are expected to continue outperforming.
