With Growth stocks struggling in the current volatile, rising rate & inflationary market environment, Dividend stocks have quietly started to outperform their racier peers, by a substantial margin.

Looking back to 1Q 2021 a similar rotation occurred, only to be short lived as Growth stocks regained their popularity.

With reporting season well underway, popular Growth Stocks have so far disappointed the market. Factor in challenging prospects for global economic growth in 2022, this latest rotation may continue, and remains a trending topic for investors looking to diversify their income streams.
