3 Dividend-Paying Tech Stocks to Buy Right Now
The allure of dividends is understandable -- getting paid to own stock over a long-term holding period is attractive. However, mature companies often pay dividends that reward shareholders because they have nowhere else to inject their excess capital. Essentially they pay shareholders money to incentivize owning the stock because other companies will likely eclipse them in growth.
Three companies bucking that trend are Texas Instruments (NASDAQ: TXN), Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), and Accenture (NYSE: ACN). While all three pay a dividend, each has exciting growth prospects. Growth investors, in particular, should pay attention to these three, as their stability can balance out high flyers within a portfolio.
