In this seemingly eternal period of historically low interest rates, stocks have become increasingly popular as income-seeking investors have been forced to take on more risk. Last year, the S&P 500 Index set a record for dividend payouts, though dividends increased at their slowest pace since 2011. Still, we have identified a group of stocks, listed below, that appear to be well-positioned to increase dividend payouts considerably.
We checked to make sure the companies hadn’t cut their dividends over the past five years. Some may have cut dividends during the last recession, and some started paying dividends or resumed paying dividends over the past five years. This left us with 23 companies. Here they are: HCP Inc. (HCP), Host Hotels & Resorts Inc. (HST), AT&T Inc. (T), Welltower Inc. (HCN), GameStop Corp. Class A (GME), Viacom Inc. Class B (VIAB), Ford Motor Co. (F), Kohl’s Corp. (KSS), Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ), People’s United Financial Inc. (PBCT), Crown Castle International Corp. (CCI), Mosaic Co. (MOS), Gap Inc. (GPS), v (ABBV), Realty Income Corp. (O), Cisco Systems Inc. (CSCO), Prologis Inc. (PLD), Altria Group Inc. (MO), Pfizer Inc. (PFE), Principal Financial Group Inc. (PFG), Kimco Realty Corp. (KIM) and Macy’s Inc. (M).
