MarketBeat's Dividend Stock Screener Unveils Top Seven Picks
MarketBeat's stock screener tool has identified seven dividend stocks that investors may want to consider. These companies, including Medtronic, ProShares UltraPro Short QQQ, Home Depot, McDonald's, Chevron, NIKE, and Accenture, have seen high trading volumes in recent days.
The tools screen for stocks with the highest dollar trading volume within a set period, and these seven stocks fit that criteria. Investors may be attracted to dividend stocks because they offer both potential stock-price appreciation and a steady income stream.
Medtronic, for example, develops medical device-based therapies and has seen recent price fluctuations. Its Cardiovascular Portfolio segment offers implantable cardiac pacemakers and other devices. Home Depot operates as a home improvement retailer in the US and internationally.
