Dividend Growth Investors For These Reasons (DIV)

We have all heard it… Stodgy, for old people, yawn, boring! These have all been used to describe dividend growth investing. As a dividend growth investor, I sometimes think our strategy is the most misunderstood.

It seems everyone understands a traders mentality as evidenced by the numerous comments on capital appreciation – “Why would you buy that stock? It has been flat for 2 years.” Most understand the income investors mentality as noted by comments like – “Why would you buy that stock when you can buy Amalgamated Risk and it pays a 9% dividend?” Both of these strategies can be successful, as can a dividend growth strategy. Periodically, it is good to remind ourselves why we are dividend growth investors.
