There's 3 New Standout Dividend Stocks — And 3 Pay The Most

It's tough to beat the "Dividend Aristocrats" for bankable dividend stocks. And investors now have three more in the S&P 500 to choose from — but can find even higher yields. The Dividend Aristocrats is a rarefied list of the S&P 500 stocks that have boosted their dividends for at least 25 years. Fans of dividends applaud the Aristocrats' stability amid a turbulent stock market.

Three stocks, including C.H. Robinson Worldwide (CHRW), Nordson (NDSN) and J.M. Smucker (SJM), will join the storied S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats on Feb. 1, says Howard Silverblatt, senior index analyst at S&P Dow Jones Indices. The newest Dividend Aristocrats won't set the world on fire for their yields. But their habit of raising the payments is still impressive.
