For long-term performance, investors should consider pivoting their portfolios toward stocks that deliver high and growing dividend payouts, Barron's reports. The S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index, which includes members of the S&P 500 Index (SPX) that have raised their dividends for at least 25 consecutive years, has delivered a total return of almost 300% since inception in 2005, versus 221% for the S&P 500 and 168% for the S&P 500 Value Index.
