The 3 Best Dividend Stocks to Buy Now

When looking for the best dividend stocks to buy, I’m more interested in the dividend growth than the yield. That’s because growth in dividends results from growth in earnings. So, while the best dividend stocks to own don’t necessarily have the highest yields, they’ll make you plenty of money over time.

Below I’ve selected three dividend stocks held by VIG that have grown their annual dividend by roughly 10% or more over the past five years. Here are the best dividend-paying stocks to buy and hold: Microsoft (MSFT): Between AI and the cloud, shareholders shouldn’t lose any sleep over the Activision Blizzard deal. Costco (COST): Its membership fees make same-store sales growth less important. Texas Instruments (TXN): The company has increased its dividend 19 years in a row.
