It might seem like a bad time to invest in blue chip dividend stocks. The 10-Year Treasury is trading at a 4.5% yield; the Federal Reserve might raise interest rates in the second half of the year if inflation doesn't cool off; and the S&P 500 looks expensive at 32 times earnings.
All those factors suggest it's smarter to stick with low-risk CDs, T-bills, and investment-grade corporate bonds instead of buying dividend stocks. However, that tepid interest in dividend stocks is creating great buying opportunities for long-term investors who plan to hold their stocks for a few decades rather than a few quarters.
