What's better than a good thing? More of a good thing.
Dividend stocks are great for many reasons, not least because any company that can sustain growing payouts for a long time likely has a strong underlying business. It's even better to invest in excellent income stocks when they seem to be trading at attractive valuations, which isn't always easy to find since such corporations are in high demand.
Inflation can be countered by investing in income-generating assets like consumer staples, energy, and pharmaceuticals, which provide essential products and reliable dividends. In this article, I highlight two such names that offer robust payouts which are well-covered by earnings. Both carry moat-worthy business models and have strong pipelines that support potential for robust total returns.

The economy is mixed - strong in some sectors, weak in others. I see value in cyclical stocks and healthcare, both lagging but poised for growth. One pick is a cyclical turnaround story with strong recovery potential. The other is a high-yield healthcare gem with anti-cyclical resilience. Both stocks offer market-beating potential, solid dividends, and long-term growth. They're perfect for balancing risk and reward in today's uncertain economy.
