Dividend growth investors focus on this issue and have strong efforts when selecting a stock.
Recently, I wrote about stocks with a wonderful dividend history but they are not part of the Dividend Champions League due to the fact that they have run its dividends flat for a while.
In my view, it's not a reason why you should not own the company. I've selected a few great names and hope you can find some inpirational ideas.
These are the results....
