Few companies have survived the events of the last 100-plus years, which have been marked by two world wars, numerous economic booms and busts, rapid technological advancements, increased global competition, evolving consumer tastes and much more. Today, we’re focusing on precisely seven of those companies — a group of high-quality dividend stocks that have reliably paid investors since the 19th century.
All of these businesses have created massive value for shareholders. In fact, over the last 20 years, each of these blue-chip dividend stocks has delivered a total return greater than 550% — easily outpacing the S&P 500 index’s total return of about 360%. The following companies are some of the best dividend stocks for safe income and consistent income growth: Stanley Black & Decker, Inc. (SWK), UGI Corp (UGI), Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM), Colgate-Palmolive Company (CL), Procter & Gamble Co (PG), PPG Industries, Inc. (PPG) and Consolidated Edison, Inc. (ED).
