Stocks that have a strong history of dividend growth belong to mature companies, which are less susceptible to large swings in the market, and thus act as a hedge against economic or political uncertainty as well as stock market volatility. At the same time, these offer downside protection with their consistent increase in payouts. Here are five of the 20 stocks that fit the bill:
Illinois-based Jones Lang LaSalle Inc (NYSE:JLL) is a full-service real estate firm. California-based Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) is one of the world’s largest semiconductor chip maker. Illinois-based AbbVie Inc (NYSE:ABBV) is a global research-based biopharmaceutical company. Ohio-based Owens Corning (NYSE:OC) is a world leader in building materials systems and composite solutions.
