President Donald Trump’s broad new tariffs have rattled investors’ confidence, sparking fears of an economic slowdown and triggering a notable selloff in equities. The move has added more uncertainty to the market, and stocks could remain volatile, at least in the short term.
Yet even in the face of this turbulence, not all stocks are faltering. In fact, a few dividend-paying names are quietly holding their ground and even inching higher. Among them, Philip Morris International (PM) is proving to be surprisingly resilient. While PMI stock may not be entirely insulated from the impact of tariffs, its performance suggests a degree of stability.
