The best dividend stocks are deceptively simple to find. At its core, dividend investing involves a buy-and-hold strategy since dividend yields are calculated on an annualized basis. In other words, if you don’t hold for a least one year, you don’t get paid in full. Also, the best dividend stocks are cash-rich and stable – not explosive growth companies that are plowing every penny into ambitious expansion or research. Remember, every penny a company spends on acquisitions or research is a penny it can’t give back to investors via dividends.
Let me show you what I mean. Here are the five best dividend stocks for retirement income that are case studies in stability, strong balance sheets and dividend growth: Cisco (CSCO), Diageo (DEO), China Mobile (CHL), Old Republic International (ORI) and Huntsman (HUN).
