Most investors worth their salt know that they’d only be hurting themselves by forgetting about dividend stocks. Because as explosive as high-growth stocks’ returns can be in quick bursts, dividend stocks and their regular payouts have managed to outperform their non-paying twins by a wide margin over the past few decades.
According to a new report by Ned Davis Research, between 1972 and 2014, dividend stocks have provided an average total return of over 9%. Those stocks that a bit stingy with their cash have only generated sub-3% returns in that time. Even the broader market underperformed the average of all dividend-paying stocks by 150 basis points in that time! Can’t-Miss Dividend Stocks to Buy: Medtronic (MDT), Cisco Systems (CSCO), Aqua America (WTR), Starbucks (SBUX) and 3M (MMM).
