Although volatility has been trending downwards, investors must still maintain a diversified portfolio that should include some income-generating dividend penny stocks
SmallCapPower | June 3, 2016: Equity investors should always aim to maintain a diversified and relatively balanced portfolio. That means including dividend stocks, as well as stocks that are poised for growth. During times of increased uncertainty, investors can mitigate risk by having a steady income stream from dividend stocks. While a portion of their portfolio depreciates in value, the investor can still receive cash flow. An economic downturn, however, could cause a company to cut its dividend payout. For that reason, we suggest investors look at these TSX-listed dividend penny stocks that have a relatively low debt-equity ratio.
