One of the advantages of dividend investing is that it’s predictable. Technology investors have a tough time projecting which companies will even exist in a few years. Income investors, in contrast, can often make accurate forecasts a decade or so into the future.
Take Realty Income Corp (NYSE:O). In an Income Investors column earlier this year, I predicted the real estate investment trust—which owns hundreds of retail properties across the country—would boost its distribution in early 2019. I can report that Realty Income did not disappoint. Only a few days after the post appeared, the company raised its monthly dividend to $0.226 per share. That payout represents a three-percent increase from where the distribution stood last year.
