Today’s chart highlights one of our favorite ways to find top dividend stocks: buying forever assets. I coined the term “forever asset” to describe my favorite group of elite businesses. Their entrenched market position allows them to crank out cash flows year after year. Many of these incredible companies have paid dividends to shareholders for decades.
Case in point: Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (NYSE:BIP). As a shareholder in this firm, you become the part owner of dozens of infrastructure monopolies around the world. It owns railroads in Australia, electric grids through Canada, and telecommunication towers across Europe. The business makes my list of top dividend stocks for a couple of reasons. First, these properties gush cash flow. After all, this infrastructure powers the global economy. Without these essential assets, our society would basically grind to a halt. This produces a near-recession-proof stream of profits, regardless of which party controls the White House.
