"Do you know the only thing that gives me pleasure? It's to see my dividends coming in."
-- John D. Rockefeller There's a reason one of the world's wealthiest men loved dividend stocks so much. Aside from the extra income, dividends, when reinvested, can grow quickly over the years thanks to the power of compounding, bringing you rich returns. Income investors, there's great value to unlock from this paint maker, industrial mega-conglomerate, clean-energy giant, and dividend ETF.
Great dividend stocks, though, go beyond high yields -- they're also stable and growing. That's why you simply can't ignore Sherwin-Williams (NYSE:SHW), Illinois Tool Works (NYSE:ITW), NextEra Energy (NYSE:NEE), and the PowerShares S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility Portfolio (NYSEMKT:SPHD).
