If you're looking for a good dividend stock for the long term, it's important to look beyond current dividend yields to the company's prospects for growth and the strength of its free cash flow. A robust free cash flow makes it more likely that the company will increase its dividend payout in the future.
These stocks have the potential for stock-price appreciation plus continued dividend increases. Two companies that have strong free cash flows (FCF), and room for continued solid stock-price appreciation and dividend increases are Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) and Walt Disney (NYSE:DIS).
