AT&T, ONEOK and Pfizer highlighted for dividend yields amid market worries

The picks range from about 4.3% to 6.1% dividend yields, with each company using a different approach to capital returns.

MarketBeat Ratings frames the current environment as one where investors are seeking safety, citing recession-like consumer confidence and higher prices alongside an interest-rate policy that it describes as not stimulative.

The outlet says dividend-paying stocks have been drawing attention, pointing to increased flows into dividend-focused ETFs in 2026, as investors look for cash returns when valuation gaps between AI-linked mega caps and the rest of the market widen.

It highlights AT&T, noting the company cut its dividend in 2022 after its WarnerMedia spinoff, while also maintaining its current dividend and listing a yield of about 4.3%.

The story also names ONEOK and Pfizer as other dividend-oriented options, describing their capital-return positioning and placing the three names together as yielding roughly 4.3% to 6.1%.
