Dividend stocks give investors the benefit of receiving regular passive income inside a growth investment. Investors can use the consistent cash flow from dividends to cover living expenses, buy other investments, or reinvest them to maximize their total return.
Companies that pay dividends are generally mature companies that generate free cash flow that they can deploy to reward shareholders. And once companies start paying dividends, they are likely to make paying their dividend a priority.
However, like any investment, some dividend stocks are better than others. This special presentation highlights seven dividend achievers. This is a group of companies that have increased their dividend for at least 10 consecutive years.
This is significant due to the benefit of compounding. This is when you reinvest the dividends you earn to buy more shares. Over time your investment grows, which allows you to earn a larger dividend. It's a proven low-risk wealth building strategy.
