With markets still volatile, it’s a good idea to keep your portfolio protected.

One of the best ways to do just that is by investing in safe, high-yielding stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). 

According to Franklin Templeton:

“While at times overlooked, dividends have played a substantial role in investor returns over the past several decades. From 1960 through the end of last year, roughly 85% of the S&P 500 Index’s cumulative total return can be attributed to reinvested dividends and the power of compounding. Dividend-focused strategies provide the potential for better stability, consistent income, and a hedge against economic uncertainty for all-weather portfolios.”

Look at The Global X Super Dividend ETF (SDIV), for example.
