Stocks Down but Quality Names Like KeyCorp, Unilever, BlackRock Still Compelling for Long-Term Dividend Investors

Stocks are down but long-term investors should buy quality names on dips. KeyCorp, Unilever, and BlackRock are compelling dividend stocks right now.

KeyCorp is a regional bank holding up better than peers. The dividend yield is 8.3% and the payout has grown for over a decade.

Unilever's global consumer brands provide currency diversification. New CEO Schumacher plans changes to unlock value. The dividend yield is 3.9%.

BlackRock is the leading ETF provider with iShares. Earnings consistently cover the dividend, which has tripled in 10 years.

BlackRock and Unilever may seem tethered to markets, but their revenues are stable. Both saw net inflows last quarter despite market weakness.
