I’ve picked these five highest paying dividend stocks for my 2019 stock market challenge and am excited about watching that cash flow into the portfolio. Make sure you join us each month to track the dividend portfolio and everyone in the challenge.

I’m all for a diversified portfolio of stocks including growth, value and other themes but I think dividend stocks will beat the market this year. Not only do these five dividend yielding stocks have huge upside potential in price but the high dividend payouts will be a source of positive returns even if the stock market crashes. That’s going to mean protection from a recession and an opportunity to uses those dividends to buy more stocks at lower prices.
I’ll be updating the stock market challenge each month and you can follow other YouTube portfolios in the #GrowYourDough challenge. I’ll be tagging and referencing other investors in the challenge in update videos.
In this video, I’ll show you how I set up the dividend investing portfolio and why I picked dividend stocks. I’m also revealing my first five stock picks, the best dividend stocks of 2019, that I think could produce huge returns this year.
