Dividend growth stocks are among our favorite investment groups because you get so much bang for your buck. Not only do the companies pay dividends but business growth typically means capital appreciation as well. What this boils down to is called total returns, or the sum of your dividends and capital returns, and dividend growth stocks deliver the best total returns.
This is especially true of dividend growth stocks that have a history and outlook for distribution increases because dividend increases help maintain your portfolio yield over time while also increasing the yield-per-dollar on each dollar you invest. And if the analysts like the stocks too, all the better, because their attention (if it's the right kind) will help keep a stock moving higher. So that’s why we were so interested when AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV), Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR), and Pepsico (NASDAQ: PEP) turned up on our screen for upgrades as we enter the Q1 earnings reporting season.
