Sometimes growth stocks and income-producing stocks are arrayed against each other as some sort of "bubblegum vs. potato chips" argument. In reality, though, investors can usually find a pretty healthy menu of choices among companies that not only return a meaningful dividend to shareholders, but also have growth prospects strong enough to drive future capital appreciation. Although an investor should always hold a diversified portfolio to minimize company-specific risks, a selection of these stocks could offer a bit of the best of both worlds.
Nothing succeeds quite like success, and all of the companies on this list have a long history of success in their chosen fields. They also offer investors a middle route alternative between capital gains investing and the hunt for dividends. While investors must of course do their own due diligence and buy these names only at compelling prices, the underlying businesses are such that long-term holders should expect a good mix of earnings and dividend growth.
