A few of the stocks I own have actually increased their dividend despite the recent downward slide in the market.

My stock hasn't budged up in almost a year...compulsively I check it every day. I really need to quit looking at The Raging Bull message boards about it. It's discouraging...yet I hope.

That's because, when it comes to stocks, there are two payoffs:</p> <OL>
  <li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Stock price appreciation. </LI>
  <li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;">Dividend payouts. </LI>

<P>During a down market, you can say sayonara to stock price appreciation for at least a little while. But that won't be so bad if you've invested in some strong dividend-payers: You'll collect fat payments no matter how the market behaves.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/3C1AD895-DB31-4AAC-BF20-D9517EE6552B/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
