One of the main failures in dividend investing is to invest in stocks that pay inordinately high dividends. Believe me, out there are 149 companies with double-digit yields, but most of these cash payer are not safe. If a company announces to its cut dividend, investors do not only lose a part of their income, they also will experience capital losses.
However, if you are looking for safe dividends for your retirement, or you like to watch for steady growing monthly payments of your portfolio, you must follow another way. It makes sense to invest in lower-yielding stocks with a higher and stable growth. Here are seven well-established companies that have a very long history of dividend payments: The Coca-Cola Company (KO), Exxon Mobil (XOM), Novartis (NVS), Intel (INTC), Procter & Gamble (PG) and Walmart Stores (WMT).
