Top 10 Dividend Stocks To Buy Right Now


More than a third of Millennials — 37% of young people — rely on the accounting firm of Mom and Dad to either prepare or pay for a CPA to do their taxes, according to a TaxAct poll.

But by taking over the responsibility of handling your taxes, you’re snagging a crucial understanding of your financial liabilities and how your money works. Or at the very least, doing them will keep you clear of penalties for not filing or paying.

Don’t panic, but it’s time. Taxes are due on April 17th, 2018.

“One of the biggest issues for first-time tax filers is that they wait until the weekend before they are due,” says Mark Kohler, CPA and senior tax adviser for TaxSlayer. “We make bad decisions when we are in a crisis.”

Ask yourself these questions before doing your taxes for the first time.

    Amphenol (NYSE:APH) was downgraded by analysts at Zacks Investment Research from a buy rating to a hold rating. According to Zacks, “Amphenol is benefiting from its end-market strength. As evident from fourth-quarter results, revenues are being driven by strong organic growth across mobile devices, military, IT and data communications, mobile networks, commercial air and broadband. Moreover, continuing focus on geographic and market diversification has enabled Amphenol to extend its presence into new customers and new applications. Shares have outperformed the industry in the past year. However, management expects first quarter sales to be negatively impacted by global economic uncertainties related to trade policy and weakness in the mobile devices end market. The geopolitical uncertainty particularly related to the U.S.-China relationship remains a major headwind.”

    Three Stocks to Watch Today: AAPL, DBX, STMP
    Shares of Dropbox Inc. (NYSE: DBX) plunged more than 10% after the company’s forward guidance fell well short of Wall Street expectations Thursday. Even though the firm topped quarterly earnings and revenue expectations, the cloud storage giant announced it would take a large write down on the value of its recent HelloSign acquisition. That will impact company margins in the year ahead, in addition to the firm’s plans to relocate offices to San Francisco, where rents are much higher.

But as Money Morning Chief Investment Strategist Keith Fitz-Gerald told readers in October 2017, Apple is no longer a device company. In fact, it hasn’t been a device company for years. Its shift into services has helped boost investor confidence, and it just made a major announcement that will target firms like Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX) and Hulu.
