There are several characteristics to look for when buying dividend stocks for the long haul. Ideally, you want companies with stable and growing revenue, excellent track records of dividend increases, and histories of shareholder-friendly management, just to name a few important attributes. With that in mind, here are five examples of excellent dividend stocks for the long haul, as explained by our analysts.
Selena Maranjian: You might not think of Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) as a dividend stock, but it recently yielded a solid 1.7%, and its payout has increased by an annual average of about 11% over the past three years. Dan Caplinger: PepsiCo (NYSE:PEP) has that its primary competitor doesn't is a burgeoning snack business, and that has been instrumental in helping the company overcome pressure from growing concerns about the possible health impacts of both sugar-laden and diet carbonated soft drinks. Matt Frankel: One dividend stock that could deliver excellent performance for the next decade and beyond is Health Care REIT (NYSE:HCN). Eric Volkman: I feel confident not only holding my Disney (NYSE:DIS) stock for the next decade. Asit Sharma: Weingarten Realty Investors (NYSE:WRI), a real estate investment trust (REIT) that leases retail space to tenants, primarily in grocery store-anchored shopping centers which it either owns or leases.
