Growth Stocks With Solid, Rising Dividend Yields

One reassuring strategy for wary investors is to buy into proven growth stocks that also provide one comforting incentive: a solid – and rising — dividend yield. And if such stocks have the added feature of being relatively low-risk investments, that would be like finding an investment nirvana. Admittedly, they are almost impossible to find, but they do exist. Such attractive characteristics are mostly found in large-cap stocks, which aren’t such a bad place to be for investors.

One research company that has created a stock screen of dividend-growth stocks is Value Line, whose list includes stocks that are comparatively low-risk investment choices. From Value Line’s 17 stock picks, I believe five stocks stand out as the more enticing investment bets for strong growth and rising dividend prospects: 1) General Mills (GIS), 2) Clorox (CLX), 3) Procter & Gamble (PG), 4) McDonald’s (MCD) and 5) Microsoft (MSFT).
