5 High Growth Dividend Paying Companies

Analysts are constantly using quantitative screens to search the stock universe for what is the best-performing category. I personally look for past performances and I agree that each stock with a wonderful past performance give me a better feeling when I put money into the stock or company.

There is also a great lack of fast rising dividends.

High-dividend growth is the growth between trailing four-quarter total common dividends and the year-ago trailing four-quarter total. 

Here are the five companies with the highest percentage of dividend growth over that time. Maybe you find some interesting names on the selection.
