No one has a crystal-ball but when
we look forward in the dividend growth space we have a great possibility to
find stocks that may raise dividends in the near future in order to keep their
status.
Today I like to introduce
some Dividend Champions that need to hike dividends over the next three month.
They did grow dividend over more than 25 years, why stopping now?
In total, 13 stocks must grow dividends of which two are High-Yields. For sure most of the
13 stocks have grown their dividends by a low rate of less than 10 percent
annually. The fastest Champ was Archer-Daniels-Midland with a 5-Year dividend
growth rate of 7.9 percent.
Small dividend
hikes are not bad. Remember, the inflation is also low and a 3 percent dividend
hike could hedge your investment.
The best
performing stock from the list was the financial services company McGraw Hill.
Since 2010, the company went up 150 percent while the worst performer, AT&T
realized only a gain of around 18 percent.
These are my 5 favorites...
