Motley Fool Picks 3 Dividend Stocks as AI Selloff Distracts Income Investors
1 articles · Updated · The Motley Fool · Jun 30
Summary
Three dividend names — Oneok, Sun Communities and Accenture — were highlighted as long-term buys while investors focus on falling AI stocks and fear a broader market sell-off.
Oneok stands out because its 60,000-mile midstream pipeline network earns by transport volume rather than commodity prices, supporting a dividend it has paid for decades and raised regularly.
Sun Communities was pitched as a steadier REIT play: its mobile-home and RV property portfolio has held up well, and the company has increased its dividend for 9 straight years.
Accenture offers the richest cited yield at 5.1% after a prolonged slump, with the report arguing AI is less of a threat than the market assumes because the company is also helping clients deploy it.
The broader call is to use the AI-driven market distraction to add durable income stocks instead of chasing the sector's recent volatility.
