For investors trying to plot a long-term strategy, it’s critical to understand the power and significance of dividends, and to spot those companies that provide a virtually unending stream of payouts. Markets go up and go down, but finding those long-term dividend payers that can get you through the tough times with steady income and just as important, the promise of continued increases to that steady income, is reassuring and, well, profitable!
You need to be vigilant, focusing on a company’s fundamentals like solid cash balances, steadily increasing free cash flow, low dividend payout ratios and all the “moats and whistles” portfolio managers like Warren Buffett and George Soros live to find. Want some examples? Gladly! Here are five rock-solid dividend stocks with exceptional histories of dividend increases and more to come: Exxon (NYSE:XOM), Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT), McDonald’s (NYSE:MCD), Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO) and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT).
