10 Oversold Dividend Growth Stocks to Buy

In this article, we will take a look at the 10 Oversold Dividend Growth Stocks to Buy. 

As the S&P 500 pushes toward record highs, investor concerns are rising alongside it. According to Bloomberg, bullish investors point to strong earnings growth driven by artificial intelligence, resilient corporate profits, and the potential for productivity gains. More cautious investors argue that the rally has been fueled by only a small group of mega-cap technology stocks and that valuations among leading AI-related companies have become stretched. There is also uncertainty surrounding the US-Iran conflict and questions about how persistent inflation could affect consumers whose finances are already showing signs of strain.

Even so, the broader market has recovered, and that is what many investors are focused on. Just two months ago, the S&P 500 was trading in negative territory. Back in March, Business Insider reported that Adam Kobeissi, founder of The Kobeissi Letter, believed the market was setting up for a rebound. In a note, he pointed out that the S&P 500 was trading at its lowest level in 232 days. He also noted that the index’s daily Relative Strength Index, which measures whether an asset is overbought or oversold, had fallen to around 29. When that indicator drops below 30, it is often viewed as a sign that an asset has become oversold.

Jay Woods, chief market strategist at Freedom Capital Markets, also highlighted historical market trends. In a note to clients, he said that in 20 of the previous 28 instances when the S&P 500 fell below its 200-day moving average, the index moved back above that level within 10 trading days.”In all cases except the bear market of 2022, things were short-lived and provided great entry points for traders over both the long and short-term,” Woods wrote.

For now, the broader market appears to have moved past the worst of its recent weakness. Even so, some oversold stocks may still offer opportunities before they fully recover.

Given this, we will take a look at some oversold stocks that pay dividends.

10. Conagra Brands, Inc. (NYSE:CAG)

Relative Strength Index: 29.08

5-Year Dividend Growth Rate: 6.18%

On June 3, Bernstein downgraded Conagra Brands, Inc. (NYSE:CAG) to Underperform from Market Perform. It also reduced its price target on the stock to $12 from $16. The firm said the company appears to be moving toward a dividend cut, noting that its payout ratio has climbed to nearly 90%. In a research note, the analyst suggested that incoming CEO John Brase may seek additional investment spending to help revive sales growth. Bernstein pointed to ongoing commodity inflation and Conagra’s limited ability to raise prices as key reasons for the downgrade.

A day earlier, on June 2, UBS analyst Peter Grom lowered his price recommendation on CAG to $13 from $16. He reiterated a Neutral rating on the stock. In a research note, the analyst said the firm had revised its expectations for food companies to reflect current demand trends and inflationary pressures.

Conagra Brands, Inc. (NYSE:CAG) is a branded food company with operations across four segments: Grocery & Snacks, Refrigerated & Frozen, International, and Foodservice.

9. Westlake Corporation (NYSE:WLK)

Relative Strength Index: 29.05

5-Year Dividend Growth Rate: 14.44%

On May 27, Citi downgraded Westlake Corporation (NYSE:WLK) to Neutral from Buy. It lowered the stock’s price target to $95 from $125. The firm cited a slower-than-expected recovery in the housing market and what it described as “less favorable” polyvinyl chloride fundamentals. Citi noted that prices in Asia have started to normalize amid weak construction activity and ample supply. As a result, the firm sees few catalysts that could sustain the current momentum in polyvinyl chloride pricing. Given those conditions, Citi expects limited supply-driven upside for Westlake’s pricing going forward.

Earlier in the month, on May 18, JPMorgan analyst Jeffrey Zekauskas upgraded Westlake to Neutral from Underweight while maintaining a $90 price target. In a research note, the analyst said the shares were trading close to fair value. JPMorgan expects Westlake to generate free cash flow equivalent to about 3% of its share price in 2026 and 8% in 2027. The firm also pointed out that polyethylene prices had increased by 40 cents per pound over the previous two months, outpacing export prices. Based on that trend, JPMorgan said that “we would be surprised to find the May price increase successful.”

Westlake Corporation (NYSE:WLK) manufactures and supplies a wide range of materials and products used in everyday applications. The company operates across Asia, Europe, and North America, serving markets that include housing and construction, packaging, healthcare, automotive, and consumer products.

5-Year Dividend Growth Rate: 10.02%

On May 29, Mizuho lowered its price recommendation on Atmos Energy Corporation (NYSE:ATO) to $184 from $192. It reiterated a Neutral rating on the stock. The firm attributed the target reduction to lower valuation multiples across the utility sector.

During the fiscal Q2 2026 earnings call, CEO John Akers said the company generated year-to-date fiscal 2026 net income of $985 million, or $5.92 per diluted share. He also noted that management had updated its earnings guidance and now expected full-year EPS to be between $8.40 and $8.50.

Akers pointed to the company’s continued infrastructure investment, stating that capital expenditures totaled $2 billion during the first half of the fiscal year. He said more than 89% of that spending was allocated to projects aimed at improving the safety and reliability of the company’s distribution, transmission, and underground storage systems.

Addressing customer growth, Akers said the company added more than 51,000 new customers during the 12 months ended March 31, 2026. More than 39,000 of those additions came from Texas, highlighting the state’s role in the company’s long-term growth plans.

7. The Buckle, Inc. (NYSE:BKE)

5-Year Dividend Growth Rate: 8.52%

UBS analyst Mauricio Serna lowered the price target on The Buckle, Inc. (NYSE:BKE) to $47 from $52 on June 1. The analyst reiterated a Neutral rating on the shares. The adjustment followed what the firm described as a “weak” first-quarter earnings report.

Despite the cautious view from UBS, the apparel retailer reported higher sales in its latest monthly update. On June 4, the company said comparable store net sales, which track locations open for at least a year, rose 2.2% during the four weeks ended May 30, 2026, compared with the same period last year.

6. The Carlyle Group Inc. (NASDAQ:CG)

Relative Strength Index: 28.28

5-Year Dividend Growth Rate: 6.96%

On May 18, TD Cowen reduced its price recommendation on The Carlyle Group Inc. (NASDAQ:CG) to $50 from $53. It reiterated a Hold rating on the stock. Following first-quarter earnings reports across the alternative asset management sector, the firm updated its models. The analyst noted that while the sector’s long-term earnings potential continues to improve, the quality of current earnings remains relatively weak.

Earlier, on May 12, BofA lowered its price goal on CG to $43 from $48. It maintained an Underperform rating on the shares after the company reported a miss in management fee revenue. The analyst said Carlyle’s growth rate continues to trail that of its peers. In response to the latest results, the firm reduced its EPS estimates for 2026, 2027, and 2028, mainly due to lower expectations for base management fees and realized principal investment income.
