Here are the ones I'd be most worried about. Many on that list of 60 are ridiculous. Do they really think PEP, KO and HSY are going to cut dividends?

Exactly Eric. These people put out lists just to scare investors like you an me. I don't fall for it
Her's a nice piece of info people will like seeing in times like this....

The median stock on the list has criteria that include: an investment-grade issuer rating of A-, 90 straight quarters of dividend payments without a cut, and a dividend payout ratio 47% using realized 2019 earnings per share.

Thirteen of the 40 companies are in the financial sector. They include Wells Fargo (WFC), Bank of America (BAC), U.S. Bancorp (USB), Franklin Resources (BEN) & M&T Bank (MTB).

Three pharmaceutical firms made the list: Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY), Merck (MRK) and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ).

Industrial firms include 3M (MMM), Caterpillar (CAT) and United Technologies (UTX).
The three technology companies on the list are International Business Machines (IBM), NetApp (NTAP) and Cisco Systems (CSCO)

Three of the utilities are CenterPoint Energy (CNP), Exelon (EXC) and American Electric Power (AEP).

There is one consumer discretionary firm on the list, Home Depot (HD), and two consumer staples companies: Archer Daniels -Midland (ADM) and Sysco (SYY).

Three real-estate investment trusts. They include Essex Property Trust (ESS), which operates apartments. That part of the market is considered more resilient than other real-estate sectors such as shopping malls. The others on the list are Regency Centers (REG) and Mid-America Apartment Communities (MAA). The properties Regency operates are primarily anchored by grocery stores.

LOL, going slow is working for me.  If I have to turn 20 trades a day I'll do it.  Seriously though, I'll make 50 shares a three trade thing if it makes sense.  My 100 share purchases weren't working out too often.  I'm always early whether buying or selling.  

I can't believe you missed my post quote of yours yesterday evening.  I'm deeply disappointed lol.
Those articles will not get any readers and no "wow" factor if there are no big names that regular folks recognize.
It's not so much about the authors being clueless, it's more about them focusing more on getting readers (=money) rather than being right. This is the problem with a lot of media nowadays, it's not about the quality, it's about getting as many views as possible.

That was the stupidest thing I've read lately.  The best UTEs are on the list too.  Some rookie is going to sell their shares today after reading that foolishness.  They did it for shock value and it's a BS tactic. It genuinely ticked me off.

Couldn't agree more with youSmile
Added a bit of D today, bought initial small positions of SNA and SWK

Be a little careful with that Buffet following thing.  He bought about $20 ago when I bought my first shares.  The story has changed more than a little.  The dividend is likely history for now. DAL is the best managed airline in the industry and that will not save us for now.  If you are cool with waiting over a year for a dividend you're good. I'll be pleasantly surprised if I see another Div in 2020.
Nibbled some OLN and TGT. Sold the last of my AMZN. It's been a good ride but the valuation doesn't match the economy anymore. I'll be back if it corrects. More UTE shares for now.
