High interest rates could pressure companies to cut dividends. These names may be at risk, Wolfe Research says

Investors' hoped-for interest rate cuts aren't materializing any time soon, and that could spell bad news for some dividend-paying stocks, according to Wolfe Research. Federal Reserve policymakers on Wednesday kept their key interest rate at a target range of 5.25%-5.50%, noting that even as the economy has made progress on inflation, the central bank isn't yet ready to start dialing back on monetary policy.

Vail Resorts , an operator of ski resorts and owner of the Epic Pass, made Wolfe's list. The stock is down more than 15% in 2024, and it offers a dividend yield of nearly 5%. Earlier this month, JPMorgan cut its rating on Vail to underweight from neutral and slashed its price target to $176 from $217.
