There are two popular approaches to dividend investing—dividend growth stocks and high dividend stocks. I like dividend growth stocks in particular since these are usually high quality companies with solid balance sheets and stable cash flows. While some sectors like utilities, real estate and consumer staples offer higher dividend yields than all other sectors, sometime a high yield could be the result of decline in stock price. Investors should avoid such stocks since their dividend may be unsustainable.
The Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG) holds US companies that have increased their dividends for at least 10 consecutive years. The SPDR S&P Dividend ETF (SDY) invests in companies that have increased dividends for at least 20 consecutive years. The iShares Core Dividend Growth ETF (DGRO) holds companies that have a history of sustained dividend growth.
