Cramer's Stock Picks: Jim Cramer highlighted three reliable dividend stocks—Enbridge, Pfizer, and Realty Income—after a volatile week on Wall Street, emphasizing their safety compared to other high-yielders.
Enbridge's Stability: As an oil pipeline company, Enbridge benefits from commodity volume rather than price, offering a yield of over 5.6% and solid long-term growth potential, with minimal regulatory concerns under the current administration.
Pfizer's Potential: Cramer views Pfizer as a "bond equivalent" with a nearly 6.9% yield, noting its strong cash flow and potential to leverage recent acquisitions to navigate upcoming patent expirations.
Realty Income's Resilience: Despite concerns over its tenant base, Realty Income offers a 5.7% yield and maintains a high occupancy rate of 98.7%, with tenants in essential sectors likely to withstand economic downturns.
