5 Consistently Growing, Profitable, Well-capitalized Stocks With Ever-Increasing Dividend Yields

Sectors with consistent dividends – most notably, utilities – are treated like bonds and tend to do well in low-rate environments. That’s because yields move in the opposite direction of price. But when rates rise, prices fall. 

What I'm looking for are companies that are consistently growing, consistently profitable, well-capitalized, as well as with an ever-increasing dividend yield.

In additon, it's good to look for companies that have consistency like consumer staple companied.

Here are some of the stocks with ever growing sales in the past.
