20 Stocks And Funds With Dividend Growth

Stocks with dividend hikes from last week originally published at “long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. I enjoy it really to see how dividends grow. One company with monthly payments that hiked its dividends with an impressive speed is the retail real estate trust Realty Income. Last week they announced only a small hike of 0.2 percent but this bigger dividend will be paid every month.

I personally don’t like REITs and financials because of the high debt. They also invested huge amounts into assets of which I have no idea how they could perform. I stay by my core research competence and let them do their work.

Last week, 19 companies and one fund announced a dividend hike. Only half of them have a current buy or better rating. The average dividend growth of the top dividend growers from last week amounts to 53.73 percent.
