Top 10 Dividend Stocks To Buy For 2019

These 10 states impose the lowest taxes on retirees, according to Kiplinger's 2017 analysis of state taxes. All of them exempt Social Security benefits from state taxes. Most exempt at least a portion of other retirement income, such as pensions and withdrawals from tax-deferred retirement plans. Most also have low property taxes. That's important, because tax proposals by Republican lawmakers to eliminate or cap the property-tax deduction would effectively increase the tax rate for taxpayers who itemize.

For 2017, we prepared a sample tax return for a hypothetical couple with income from Social Security, a private pension, $5,000 in dividends, and a required minimum withdrawal from an individual retirement account. (See our methodology on the last slide for details.)

  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. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) continues to remain in the headlines. The firm's iPhone sales had been declining before the company decided to stop reporting unit sales beginning this year.

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.

Shares of Stamps.com Inc. (NASDAQ: STMP) plunged more than 50% in pre-market hours after the shipping products company announced it was ending its exclusive partnership with the USPS.

During its earnings call last night, the firm's CEO said that USPS would not accept the terms of its partnership proposal. On Friday, look for earnings reports from Aut

  Vincent Shen: One of the theater chains that we talked about on this similar show last year is no longer in the running as a public company in terms of the stocks. First, with Cinemark (NYSE:CNK), one of the two large remaining chains, it has an offering called Movie Club. This launched last year. $8.99 per month. What you get is one 2D ticket that rolls over if it's unused. You can build those rollover tickets if you don't go that often. Plus, 20% off concessions, and there's no online fees for when you buy those tickets. Then, you can get up to two additional add-on tickets for $8.99 each.

  On balance, AMC's offer still appears to fall significantly short of MoviePass' as a value proposition (as did an earlier competing offer from Cinemark (NYSE:CNK) last year). So long as MoviePass remains in business, I honestly can't see many moviegoers taking AMC up on its offer.
