  • Trivariate Research Recommends Dividend Growth Stocks to Shield Portfolios Amid Market Selloff
    May 19, 2026, 5:27 PM EDT. Trivariate Research suggests investors pivot to dividend growth stocks for downside protection amid a market selloff. The S&P 500 is facing a third consecutive losing session as 10-year Treasury yields hit their highest since early 2025, surpassing 4.6%. Traditional defensive sectors like pharmaceuticals and utilities now constitute just over 10% of the S&P 500, down from nearly 30% 25 years ago. Trivariate targets stocks with at least five years of consistent dividend growth, forecasted sales growth of 7%, and earnings growth of 10%. Notable picks include Rollins, a pest control firm with a 10% yoy dividend increase and solid analyst support, and Cheniere Energy, benefiting from geopolitical factors and rising earnings forecasts. Both stocks exemplify resilience and growth potential in volatile markets.
