Six dividend stocks identified as resilient if inflation stays high

A dividend-stock screen identified six companies that analysts say may cope with continued inflation while maintaining sustainable payouts.

The picks are Canadian and U.S. firms: Barrick Gold, Gladstone Land, PepsiCo, Archer Daniels Midland, Nutrien and Loblaw.

The screen looked for businesses able to pass higher costs to customers or hold assets that can hedge against inflation.

It also rated companies on factors such as dividend history, cash flow, debt and management’s commitment to payouts.

The picks span gold, farmland, food and grocery businesses, and fertilizer, each with reasons the analysts expect it to withstand rising costs.

The list is intended to help investors limit inflation’s impact, but it does not guarantee that any stock or dividend will perform well.

The article gives no further steps or timeline for investors to act.
