As an investor, I would give maximum importance to earn the highest return on my investment and to increase my wealth. Undoubtedly, everyone will do the same. On the other hand, a company raises funds with an aim to finance its long-term growth. If a company pays out as dividend greater part of its earnings, then for business requirements and further expansion it will go for external finance such as issuance of debt or new shares.
Therefore, a firm’s dividend policy influences both the long-term financing and the wealth of investors. Stable dividends pose a positive effect on the market price of shares and reduce the chance of worries in the market. In such case, investors wishing for a fixed rate of return will be ready to invest in stable dividend stocks. The stability of dividend means that a company pays a constant amount per shares or a constant percentage of net earnings. Below are 6 stocks that lifted dividends for 28 years in a row: Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE:XOM), AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T), Air Products & Chemicals, Inc. (NYSE:APD), Bristol Myers Squibb Co. (NYSE:BMY), The Valspar Corporation (NYSE:VAL) and Cintas Corporation (NASDAQ:CTAS).
