When it comes to dividends, a large headline yield isn’t always the best choice. The reality is, stocks that grow those dividends consistently over time are actually better bets for portfolios. The combination of steadily higher dividends and capital appreciation from investors wanting those increases makes dividend growth stocks a potent choice for most portfolios. And with that, here are five great dividend stocks with wonderful dividend growth behind and ahead of them...
Don’t let Jones Lang LaSalle Inc (NYSE:JLL) measly headline 0.48% dividend yield fool you. JLL is a monster dividend growth stock. Snap-On Incorporated (NYSE:SNA) manufactures a variety of tools, equipment and repair information systems for grease monkeys worldwide. Name the first big tech trend that pops into your head. Cloud computing? Big Data? A.I.? it doesn’t matter, they all require plenty of semiconductors to function. And for Texas Instruments (NYSE:TXN) that’s great news. Think things like syringes, catheters and IV tubing. And in the constant need to replenish and have these items on hand, Becton Dickinson and Co (NYSE:BDX) has thrived and become a huge cash cow. Perhaps the best way to add a dash of dividend growth stocks isn’t just one or two names, but about 456 of them. And that’s what they get with the iShares Core Dividend Growth ETF (NYSEARCA:DGRO).
