General Mills, which offers a 7.01% dividend yield, saw its stock fall 15.5% in September. Clorox and Hormel have hit new lows dating back to 2013. Edison International, which pays a 6.68% dividend, has seen its stock drop almost 30% in the past month.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The sell-off is occurring as the 10-year Treasury yield climbs, reaching 5.225%, the highest level since June 2007. This market pressure is visible in dividend ETFs, such as the State Street SPDR S & P Dividend ETF (SDY), which is down 7% in the past month. The market shows a clear divergence between consumer staples and technology sector performance.
