Optimistic On The Market With Dividend Paying Stocks
b'"I am cautiously optimistic on the market even with interest rates going up. I think that housing has bottomed and people are starting to get used to the higher mortgage rates. I favor stocks that are paying dividends and am looking for total returns. Semiconductor stocks are also interesting. Remember that the stock market is a forward looking vehicle and investors want to own things. The Federal Reserve will continue to raise interest rates to control inflation," says Ken Van Leeuwen.'
