The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO) is among the best dividend stocks for a bear market. The company has paid a dividend since 1920 and has raised its annual payout for 63 consecutive years, a streak topped by only a few publicly traded companies. A row of factory workers assembling bottles of sparkling soft drinks on a conveyor belt. The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO) operates in a space that offers rare stability, even when the economy takes a hit. Its strength lies in two key factors: consistent demand and the ability to raise prices without losing customers. As a provider of consumer staples, the company benefits from steady demand even during economic downturns. While it isn't immune to challenges, its core operations tend to hold up well when the broader market struggles. In addition, when sales volume dips, Coca-Cola can often raise prices without losing customers. This resilience is reflected in its valuation, both its price-to-sales and price-to-earnings ratios are above their five-year averages. Given its strong fundamentals and track record, The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO) is well-positioned to continue increasing its dividend in the years ahead. The company's five-year average payout ratio is around 80%, and given its solid cash generation, investors expect growing dividends in the coming years as well. The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO) offers a dividend yield of 2.88%, as of June 17. While we acknowledge the potential of KO as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

About Half Of Homeowners Have Regrets About Buying Their Current Home, 'Affordability Issues Rank High On The List Of Regrets'
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. It may be a buyer's market right now, but a survey by Bankrate found that 42% of homeowners have regrets about purchasing their current homes. The most common regret is not being aware of how much maintenance and other hidden costs would amount to. Bankrate's Hidden Costs of Homeownership Study found that the average cost associated with owning a home in the U.S. is $21,400 per year. That cost has risen over the last five years as inflation and interest rates have increased, and the market has gotten more competitive. Don't Miss: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — Peter Thiel turned $1,700 into $5 billion—now accredited investors are eyeing this software company with similar breakout potential. Learn how you can Other regrets for homeowners include buying too small or too large a home, overpaying, choosing a bad location, having mortgage rates and mortgage payments that are too high, and not thinking that purchasing a home was a good investment. "For most folks, buying a home is the most expensive transaction of their lifetime," Bankrate Senior Economic Analyst Mark Hamrick said. "After the purchase is complete, we find that affordability issues rank high on the list of regrets. While homeownership is still associated with the proverbial American dream, it is prudent to consider and plan for the many ongoing costs of ownership, not just getting over the threshold of the down payment and settlement." Despite these regrets, 70% of those surveyed said they would repurchase their current home if they had to do it all over again. Meanwhile, 17% said they would not repurchase, and 13% were unsure if they'd make the same decision. Trending: , which provides access to a pool of short-term loans backed by residential real estate with just a $100 minimum. Additionally, Bankrate found that home ownership is still a major part of the American Dream for many people. Some 82% of adults say that owning a home is a key part of the American Dream, more so than the ability to retire or have a successful career. Gen Xers and Baby Boomers, in particular, feel that home ownership is a marker of success. "Americans consider homeownership to be the cornerstone of the American Dream, more so than anything else," says Bankrate Chief Financial Analyst Greg McBride. "This belief hasn't wavered and has only gotten stronger despite increasing affordability challenges with a record high percentage of Americans, 82%, citing homeownership as part of the American Dream." The primary reason people cite for wanting to own a home but not being able to do so is affordability. "With household budgets already strained from elevated inflation and so many Americans living paycheck to paycheck, it comes as no surprise that aspiring homeowners point to insufficient income, high home prices and being unable to afford the down payment and closing costs as the major obstacles to homeownership," McBride says. Those hidden fees and maintenance costs only add to the problem. Read Next: With Point, you can Maximize saving for your retirement and cut down on taxes: .
