The valuation is lower than peers like Apple (AAPL) and Amazon (AMZN), and while the company invests heavily in research &amp; development, its efforts aren&#39;t indiscriminate. Google hasn&#39;t plowed billions into creating a new universe, and it has been fortunate enough to mostly stay out of politics, unlike the company formerly known as Facebook (META) and Twitter (TWTR). While not matching the most explosive gainers in the NASDAQ (QQQ), Google stock is no slouch, returning 19.3% annually since its highly anticipated IPO in 2004. The stock peaked a little above a split-adjusted $150 per share in late 2021 and is now near $109 per share as of my writing this. So is Google a buy at this price, and if not, where should you snap it up?</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c0a65f736f3410809e952b8051c30a84\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"802\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>GOOGLdata by YCharts</p><p>Unlike many NASDAQ stocks whose stocks have vastly outrun their underlying businesses, Google&#39;s PE ratio is about the same as it was 10 years ago.</p><p>Google is a great long-term business.</p><ul><li>The company spends almost as much on R&amp;D as it does on payroll and general &amp; administrative costs. While not all research &amp; development spending is productive, academic research on US and global markets shows companies that spend big on R&amp;D outperform companies that don&#39;t by a large margin. Automation is going to be one of the key trends in the economy going forward. Google&#39;sartificial intelligence efforts and other related R&amp;D give the company some great optionality in this arena.</li><li>Google advertising is simply more effective than traditional advertising due to the ability to better match consumers looking to fill needs with businesses looking to provide goods and services. I get annoyed when I see TV ads for stuff like structured settlements, erectile dysfunction, products to quit smoking, or drugs to treat rare autoimmune diseases. None of these apply to me. Advertisers are spending money to saturate the airwaves when the vast majority of people watching don&#39;t need or want their product! However, if someone is Googling these same things, the chance is much higher that they might need a product to help them, and companies only have to pay per click.</li><li>The network effect of being the dominant search engine offers the company a natural monopoly.</li></ul><p>However, as I pointed out in my Microsoft (MSFT)article last week, Google is one of the largest holdings in ETFs, inextricably tying the stock to the macro picture and the Fed&#39;s efforts to battle inflation. As risk sentiment changes, Google is likely to be sold off along with all of the other tech stocks, even though the business remains solid. This is a potential opportunity.</p><p><b>Why Are Stocks Selling Off?</b></p><p>I&#39;ve covered the macro picture a few times on here. In general, the market is correcting but remains somewhat mispriced. Corporate America has done well over the past few years, but what has increasingly happened is that share prices have risen faster than the underlying earnings of companies. During this time, valuations went from being a little high to being completely out of control in late 2021 against shaky earnings growth estimates. The reasons I gave at the time were that stimulus had artificially juiced corporate profits, while the Fed&#39;s free money COVID policies artificially caused valuations to swell. The result– stocks rallied epically in 2021 while nothing changed under the hood to make the economy structurally better.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9130ee8d8459f74b5ada2182017989d5\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"802\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>SPYdata by YCharts</p><p>As such, stocks have fallen rapidly in 2022 with stimulus in the rearview mirror and rates normalizing. But with the markets falling, the valuations of some stocks are starting to look attractive again. Therefore, our strategy here is pretty simple– use the falling market to get stocks for a discount.</p><p>&#34;Buy the dip&#34; is a popular strategy with investors, but the catch is that you have to buy good businesses when their valuations fall, and not just buy crappy stocks because they&#39;re down. <i>Seeking Alpha</i> is a good place to get a read on whether stock price declines are justified, and there are software tools likeF.A.S.T. Graphsthat can help you make these determinations as well. Google isn&#39;t a hard call for me–it&#39;s a good business. If you look at the company&#39;s financial statements over the last 10 years, it&#39;s clear that the company is a growth machine (in this case, the best line to look at is &#34;normalized diluted earnings per share&#34; to avoid holding tax charges from the 2017 tax bill against them).</p><p>If investing is like cooking, buying blue chip companies on market declines is like chicken parmesan. It&#39;s solid, tasty, and hard to mess up. No one is going to give us a Michelin star for this kind of strategy, but it offers a path to double your money in about 5 years with relatively little fanfare or drama.</p><p>Google is a great company. The question is the right price to pay for it.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81689a83961f08110800ec8954e31e39\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"802\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>GOOGdata by YCharts</p><p>In my Microsoft article from last week, we looked at the price-to-earnings ratios of the biggest companies in the S&amp;P 500 index (SPY) as of July 31st.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0cde87b0c7047ebf734cb0f2fbdc6e41\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"766\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>SPY Top 10 Holdings(Etrade)</p><p>If you take these and plug in a 20x PE for Berkshire, the average price-to-earnings ratio is about 46! Crazy high. But Google is the cheapest of all of these stocks. Weird, right?</p><p>I&#39;ll admit that Google is not a recession-proof company. Advertising is not going to grow at the same pace it has in a recession, and ad sales may decline. But regardless, Google should not be the cheapest stock out of the top 10 S&amp;P 500 holdings. Unlike many large-cap peers that make use of aggressive accounting to boost reported income, Google&#39;s accounting may actually understate how profitable the company is due to the company&#39;s fondness for moonshot R&amp;D spending.</p><p>To this point, GOOG has a pretty decent chance of becoming the world&#39;s most valuable company in a few years&#39; time. Google is expected to grow earnings faster than Apple going forward, and if valuations come down across the board, Google is likely to get more support as investors realize it&#39;s cheap and scoop up the stock. The adoption rate for digital advertising over traditional ads continues its unstoppable advance, and I believe Google has good prospects for gaining future market share against competitors like Snap (SNAP) and Twitter. Despite the hype over dopamine hijacking media platforms like TikTok, YouTube is a much better platform for monetizing ads due to the wider variety of niches that can match customers and businesses.</p><p><b>Estimates from 2020 for the size of the digital ad market.</b></p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9d66523d61415431cc71a569fe9ad032\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"712\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Ad Market Sizes(&#34;PWC&#34;)</p><p>And then these are more recent estimates. Note the growth!</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c26b61cf0f3a2b66f0319b7a9384ea97\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"590\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Digital Ad Spend(eMarketer)</p><p>I&#39;d be remiss if I didn&#39;t note that the crazy ad boom in 2021 may have been somewhat cyclical. Funded by nearly free VC money, the startup ecosystem heavily used digital ad spending to drive revenue. I have to give them some credit here–hedge fund Bridgewatersaw this long before the market did, and put out pieces calling the 2022 NASDAQ price declines in late 2021. While I don&#39;t agree with 100% of their research, they&#39;re a great source for research and analysis that doesn&#39;t get much media attention at all. As such, Google is down about a third from the high in late 2021.</p><p>Again, Google is not a recession-proof stock, but advertising on Google provides the best bang-for-the-buck for businesses, so while 2021 may have pulled forward some demand, Google is going to be making plenty of money over the next 10 years. Although Google could continue to fall in the short run, you&#39;re now getting solid compensation for these risks at under 20x earnings. Additionally, the lower Google&#39;s valuation goes, the more shares the company will be able to eat up with the buyback.</p><p><b>Google&#39;s Valuation</b></p><p>Google trades for about 18x 2023 earnings estimates. Yes, these estimates are in the process of being revised downward by analysts, so Google is not quite as dirt cheap as it appears. This said, the company is still pretty cheap. Why should Google trade for about the same valuation as the S&amp;P 500 at large? It shouldn&#39;t. Google very clearly has better long-term growth prospects than the average S&amp;P 500 company, so it should trade at a premium. By contrast, Coca-Cola (KO) trades for 24x earnings, and analysts expect5-6% annual growth(which history shows they&#39;ll likely miss).</p><p>Giving Google&#39;s 2023 earnings estimates a 10% haircut and applying a roughly 10% earnings-per-share CAGR gets you an estimated 14.9% long-run annual return from buying Google stock at today&#39;s price. At $100, you&#39;re getting about 15.4%, and at $90, you&#39;re getting about a 16% annual return. This obviously isn&#39;t an exact science, but Google&#39;s valuation is low enough and the future growth estimates are high enough that it&#39;s very likely you&#39;ll make money on the stock even if you&#39;re imprecise with forecasting.</p><p>Given the macro headwinds but Google&#39;s excellent long-term prospects, anything under $100 looks really good for Google, and anything under $90 is even better, taking a lot of the Fed/macro risk out of the stock. Google&#39;s growth path means it should be a $200 stock in 5-6 years–any further declines in the stock price are likely to be good buying opportunities.</p><p>A little easter egg about Google– the company has multiple share classes. Class A stock (NASDAQ: GOOGL) trades for slightly less than Class C stock (GOOG). There is no practical difference between them, but the Class A stock is about 1% cheaper than the more popular Class C stock. This will normalize over time. For one, Google has recently started to buy class A shares with the buyback if they&#39;re cheaper. Buy the Class A shares for a roughly 1% discount and a little additional edge.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/098b9637ebca8c25528c4e946d8f992f\" tg-width=\"1280\" tg-height=\"866\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>GOOGdata by YCharts</p><p><b>Bottom Line</b></p><p>Google is the cheapest stock in the top 10 holdings of the S&amp;P 500.

Google's long-term outlook is great, but macro headwinds and the Fed may drive the stock even lower.Google has a shot at being the world's most valuable company in 5-10 years, but I think you might get it cheaper than today's price.Alphabet, the parent company of Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) is the most low-key of the mega-cap tech companies. The valuation is lower than peers like Apple (AAPL) and Amazon (AMZN), and while the company invests heavily in research & development, its efforts aren't indiscriminate. Google hasn't plowed billions into creating a new universe, and it has been fortunate enough to mostly stay out of politics, unlike the company formerly known as Facebook (META) and Twitter (TWTR). While not matching the most explosive gainers in the NASDAQ (QQQ), Google stock is no slouch, returning 19.3% annually since its highly anticipated IPO in 2004. The stock peaked a little above a split-adjusted $150 per share in late 2021 and is now near $109 per share as of my writing this. So is Google a buy at this price, and if not, where should you snap it up?GOOGLdata by YChartsUnlike many NASDAQ stocks whose stocks have vastly outrun their underlying businesses, Google's PE ratio is about the same as it was 10 years ago.Google is a great long-term business.The company spends almost as much on R&D as it does on payroll and general & administrative costs. While not all research & development spending is productive, academic research on US and global markets shows companies that spend big on R&D outperform companies that don't by a large margin. Automation is going to be one of the key trends in the economy going forward. Google'sartificial intelligence efforts and other related R&D give the company some great optionality in this arena.Google advertising is simply more effective than traditional advertising due to the ability to better match consumers looking to fill needs with businesses looking to provide goods and services. I get annoyed when I see TV ads for stuff like structured settlements, erectile dysfunction, products to quit smoking, or drugs to treat rare autoimmune diseases. None of these apply to me. Advertisers are spending money to saturate the airwaves when the vast majority of people watching don't need or want their product! However, if someone is Googling these same things, the chance is much higher that they might need a product to help them, and companies only have to pay per click.The network effect of being the dominant search engine offers the company a natural monopoly.However, as I pointed out in my Microsoft (MSFT)article last week, Google is one of the largest holdings in ETFs, inextricably tying the stock to the macro picture and the Fed's efforts to battle inflation. As risk sentiment changes, Google is likely to be sold off along with all of the other tech stocks, even though the business remains solid. This is a potential opportunity.Why Are Stocks Selling Off?I've covered the macro picture a few times on here. In general, the market is correcting but remains somewhat mispriced. Corporate America has done well over the past few years, but what has increasingly happened is that share prices have risen faster than the underlying earnings of companies. During this time, valuations went from being a little high to being completely out of control in late 2021 against shaky earnings growth estimates. The reasons I gave at the time were that stimulus had artificially juiced corporate profits, while the Fed's free money COVID policies artificially caused valuations to swell. The result– stocks rallied epically in 2021 while nothing changed under the hood to make the economy structurally better.SPYdata by YChartsAs such, stocks have fallen rapidly in 2022 with stimulus in the rearview mirror and rates normalizing. But with the markets falling, the valuations of some stocks are starting to look attractive again. Therefore, our strategy here is pretty simple– use the falling market to get stocks for a discount.\"Buy the dip\" is a popular strategy with investors, but the catch is that you have to buy good businesses when their valuations fall, and not just buy crappy stocks because they're down. Seeking Alpha is a good place to get a read on whether stock price declines are justified, and there are software tools likeF.A.S.T. Graphsthat can help you make these determinations as well. Google isn't a hard call for me–it's a good business. If you look at the company's financial statements over the last 10 years, it's clear that the company is a growth machine (in this case, the best line to look at is \"normalized diluted earnings per share\" to avoid holding tax charges from the 2017 tax bill against them).If investing is like cooking, buying blue chip companies on market declines is like chicken parmesan. It's solid, tasty, and hard to mess up. No one is going to give us a Michelin star for this kind of strategy, but it offers a path to double your money in about 5 years with relatively little fanfare or drama.Google is a great company. The question is the right price to pay for it.GOOGdata by YChartsIn my Microsoft article from last week, we looked at the price-to-earnings ratios of the biggest companies in the S&P 500 index (SPY) as of July 31st.SPY Top 10 Holdings(Etrade)If you take these and plug in a 20x PE for Berkshire, the average price-to-earnings ratio is about 46! Crazy high. But Google is the cheapest of all of these stocks. Weird, right?I'll admit that Google is not a recession-proof company. Advertising is not going to grow at the same pace it has in a recession, and ad sales may decline. But regardless, Google should not be the cheapest stock out of the top 10 S&P 500 holdings. Unlike many large-cap peers that make use of aggressive accounting to boost reported income, Google's accounting may actually understate how profitable the company is due to the company's fondness for moonshot R&D spending.To this point, GOOG has a pretty decent chance of becoming the world's most valuable company in a few years' time. Google is expected to grow earnings faster than Apple going forward, and if valuations come down across the board, Google is likely to get more support as investors realize it's cheap and scoop up the stock. The adoption rate for digital advertising over traditional ads continues its unstoppable advance, and I believe Google has good prospects for gaining future market share against competitors like Snap (SNAP) and Twitter. Despite the hype over dopamine hijacking media platforms like TikTok, YouTube is a much better platform for monetizing ads due to the wider variety of niches that can match customers and businesses.Estimates from 2020 for the size of the digital ad market.Ad Market Sizes(\"PWC\")And then these are more recent estimates. Note the growth!Digital Ad Spend(eMarketer)I'd be remiss if I didn't note that the crazy ad boom in 2021 may have been somewhat cyclical. Funded by nearly free VC money, the startup ecosystem heavily used digital ad spending to drive revenue. I have to give them some credit here–hedge fund Bridgewatersaw this long before the market did, and put out pieces calling the 2022 NASDAQ price declines in late 2021. While I don't agree with 100% of their research, they're a great source for research and analysis that doesn't get much media attention at all. As such, Google is down about a third from the high in late 2021.Again, Google is not a recession-proof stock, but advertising on Google provides the best bang-for-the-buck for businesses, so while 2021 may have pulled forward some demand, Google is going to be making plenty of money over the next 10 years. Although Google could continue to fall in the short run, you're now getting solid compensation for these risks at under 20x earnings. Additionally, the lower Google's valuation goes, the more shares the company will be able to eat up with the buyback.Google's ValuationGoogle trades for about 18x 2023 earnings estimates. Yes, these estimates are in the process of being revised downward by analysts, so Google is not quite as dirt cheap as it appears. This said, the company is still pretty cheap. Why should Google trade for about the same valuation as the S&P 500 at large? It shouldn't. Google very clearly has better long-term growth prospects than the average S&P 500 company, so it should trade at a premium. By contrast, Coca-Cola (KO) trades for 24x earnings, and analysts expect5-6% annual growth(which history shows they'll likely miss).Giving Google's 2023 earnings estimates a 10% haircut and applying a roughly 10% earnings-per-share CAGR gets you an estimated 14.9% long-run annual return from buying Google stock at today's price. At $100, you're getting about 15.4%, and at $90, you're getting about a 16% annual return. This obviously isn't an exact science, but Google's valuation is low enough and the future growth estimates are high enough that it's very likely you'll make money on the stock even if you're imprecise with forecasting.Given the macro headwinds but Google's excellent long-term prospects, anything under $100 looks really good for Google, and anything under $90 is even better, taking a lot of the Fed/macro risk out of the stock.

U.S. gross domestic product has declined in each of the past two quarters, and a number of Wall Street&#39;s largest companies have sounded a cautious tone on their near-term growth prospects.

Declines in the stock market caused by recessions -- or even the prospect of the U.S. dipping into a recession -- create unique opportunities for long-term investors to pounce.</p><p>It can be an especially smart time to put your money to work in high-yielding dividend stocks (those with yields of 4% or above). Companies that regularly pay a dividend are often time-tested and profitable on a recurring basis. In other words, these are businesses that&#39;ve navigated their way through recessions before and come out stronger on the other end.</p><p>Furthermore, dividend stocks offer a rich history of outperforming their non-paying peers. A J.P. Morgan Asset Management report released in 2013 showed that companies initiating and increasing their base annual payouts between 1972 and 2012 averaged a 9.5% annual return. By comparison, stocks not offering a dividend struggled their way to a meager 1.6% annualized return over the same 40-year period.</p><p>What follows are three of the safest high-yield dividend stocks to buy if the U.S. dips into a recession.</p><h2>Enterprise Products Partners: 7.23% yield</h2><p>One of the smartest and safest high-yield income stocks to put your money to work in if the U.S. economy continues to weaken is oil and gas midstream operator <b>Enterprise Products Partners</b>. This is a company that&#39;s increased its base annual distribution in each of the past 24 years.</p><p>Understandably, the idea of investing in oil and gas stocks during a recession may not sound like the smartest idea. After all, oil and gas demand fell of a cliff during the short-lived economic downturn in 2020 caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, Enterprise Products Partners isn&#39;t like the drilling companies that took it on the chin in 2020. That&#39;s because it&#39;s a midstream operator.</p><p>As of mid-August, the company was operating more than 50,000 miles of transmission pipeline, had 14 billion cubic feet of natural gas storage space, and was overseeing 19 deepwater docks and 24 natural gas processing facilities. Midstream operators are effectively energy middlemen that lean on fixed-fee or volume-based contracts to generate highly predictable cash flow. No matter how volatile oil or natural gas prices become, Enterprise Products Partners&#39; operating cash flow remains transparent and predictable.</p><p>What&#39;s more, the company&#39;s distribution coverage ratio (DCR) -- i.e., the amount of distributable cash flow from operations relative to what&#39;s paid to investors -- didn&#39;t fall below 1.6 during the pandemic. A DCR of 1 or lower would signify an unsustainable payout.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8b7d63c91e297b740388975c0d95bf95\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image source: U.S. Bank.</span></p><h2>U.S. Bancorp: 4.04% yield</h2><p>Normally, when recessions strike, investors run away from bank stocks. But due to unique circumstances during the current bear market and economic environment, high-yield regional bank <b>U.S. Bancorp</b> looks like an exceptionally safe buy for patient investors. U.S. Bancorp is the parent of the more familiar U.S. Bank.</p><p>Whereas most money-center banks get themselves into trouble by chasing riskier derivative investments, U.S. Bancorp&#39;s predominantly conservative management team sticks with the bread-and-butter of banking: growing its loans and deposits. Avoiding the same pitfalls as its larger peers has allowed U.S. Bancorp to generate superior return on assets among big banks.</p><p>To add, this is the first time we&#39;re witnessing the Federal Reserve aggressively increase interest rates into a decisively falling stock market. Higher interest rates help banks by increasing the lending rate on outstanding variable-rate loans. Even if loan delinquency rates increase, the boost in net interest income from outstanding variable-rate loans should push bank profits higher.</p><p>U.S. Bancorp has also done a phenomenal job of encouraging its customers to bank digitally. As of May 31, 2022, 82% of active customers were banking online or via mobile app. More impressively, 64% of loan sales were completed digitally, which is up from 45% at the beginning of 2020. Digital transactions are considerably cheaper for banks than in-person or phone-based interactions.</p><h2>Verizon Communications: 6.2% yield</h2><p>A third exceptionally safe high-yield dividend stock to buy if the U.S. dips into a recession is telecom giant <b>Verizon Communications</b>. Investors would have to go back more than a decade to find the last time Verizon was doling out a yield in excess of 6%.</p><p>The beauty of the United States&#39; biggest telecom stocks is they&#39;re predictable. Verizon&#39;s total retail postpaid churn rate was just 1.03% in the June-ended quarter, which signals that its customers tend stick around. Further, having a phone and access to the internet has evolved into something of a basic necessity for most Americans. While Verizon may not be completely immune to historically high inflation and the effects of near-term economic weakness, the lion&#39;s share of its operating cash flow is extremely safe.</p><p>Even though Verizon&#39;s growth heyday has long since passed, there are still growth catalysts that can steadily move the profit needle higher for one of America&#39;s biggest telecom companies. For example, the 5G revolution should be a multiyear profit driver for the company. While upgrading its wireless infrastructure won&#39;t be cheap, the payoff should be a sizable increase in data consumption among its wireless customers. Data is where the company&#39;s wireless segment generates its juiciest margins.</p><p>Verizon also spared no expense to purchase 5G mid-band spectrum. The company has a goal of reaching 50 million households and 14 million businesses with its 5G broadband services by the end of 2025. Bolstering the reach of its broadband services should increase its operating cash flow and encourage bundling among its residential customers.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 of the Safest High-Yield Dividend Stocks to Buy if the U.S. Dips Into a Recession</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 of the Safest High-Yield Dividend Stocks to Buy if the U.S. Dips Into a Recession\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-09-09 15:46 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/09/08/3-safest-high-yield-dividend-stocks-buy-recession/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>In many ways, 2022 has been one of the most challenging years on record for investors.
