Long-term investors know two important things: Dividends are excellent and good companies are built to last. In a rapidly changing marketplace, those two factors can be difficult to find in the same company. Some high-yielding dividends are high simply because the companies are slowly sinking. On the other hand, some good, rock-steady brands pay horrible dividends. But that doesn't mean that you can't find a diamond in the rough every now and then. Here are three companies with solid dividends that aren't going anywhere.
I know retail, so when I'm looking for dividends I start with the companies that I understand. Looking through who's paying out, I'm struck by Target (NYSE: TGT), Nordstrom (NYSE: JWN), and Hasbro (NASDAQ: HAS). Now that's not to say that they've got the highest yields in the market, but they have a decent yield, and I trust that in 15 or 50 years, they'll all be around to keep the cash coming in.
