Who doesn't like dividends? Think about it: You get paid just for owning shares of a company. Although income stocks are pretty great, there's so much more to it than that. The best dividend stocks have a long history of returning value to shareholders, boast low payout ratios (demonstrating that distributions aren't at risk of being reduced), and have opportunities to grow their profits -- and hopefully their dividend payments -- over the long haul.
That's what makes agricultural powerhouse Archer Daniels Midland (NYSE:ADM), home garden supplier Scotts Miracle-Gro (NYSE:SMG), and transport leader Canadian National Railway (NYSE:CNI) worth a closer look. If you like dividends, then you should love these three stocks.
