With investors fleeing risk as the pandemic spreads and interest rates plummet, you'd think that investors in stocks that pay a dependable stream of dividends would be relatively happy right now. Dividend stocks have actually underperformed growth stocks this year. The Vanguard Growth ETF is down 1.3% for the year, but the Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF is down 8.5% and the Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF is off a whopping 16.3% since we ushered in the new decade.

A federal judge in Montana on Monday upheld his ruling last month that canceled an environmental permit for the long-delayed Keystone XL oil pipeline and threatened other oil and natural gas pipeline projects with delays. Chief U.S. District Judge Brian Morris denied a request by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to narrow his April 15 ruling that canceled the so-called Nationwide Permit 12.

Solid balance sheets, operations in critical industries, and rising dividends. What's not to love?

Oil prices have fallen through the floor this year, briefly crashing into negative territory. While crude has bounced back a bit from its bottom, at around $20 a barrel it's not profitable for most producers these days, and many more oil companies could plunge into bankruptcy over the coming months.
