Did you know that from the start of 1972 through the end of 2016, dividend stocks generated an average annual total return of 9.1%, while non-payers produced just a 2.4% yearly return? Not only that, but the same study by Ned Davis Research also discovered that dividend payers achieved that vast outperformance with significantly less volatility.
That potential to earn higher returns without enduring such big price swings is why it makes sense to get to know as many dividend stocks as possible. Three stocks we think you should know are Starbucks (NASDAQ:SBUX), Oasis Midstream Partners (NYSE:OMP), and Cisco Systems (NASDAQ:CSCO).
