We went through over 300 stocks with 10+ years of consecutive dividend increases to find the best of the best. We used almost unimaginable standards to get down to the top 15.
Each stock on this list has a dividend yield of over 2%, 10 or more years of consecutive dividend increases and a 10% dividend growth rate over the last 2, 3 and 5 year periods! Many of these stocks, like the market as a whole, have not performed well over the last year.
This list isn’t about revenue growth, payout ratios or 12-month performance. So for everyone who loves dividend growth, enjoy!
