A very good question for investors is "what kind of stocks should I buy now?"
I often ask myself and think around many industries in order to get the best results. For sure, my focus is always on dividends and dividend growth. Better if the company buy back own shares.
Well, today I like to share some stock ideas with you for income investors who are blinded by high-paying dividend stocks and looking for stocks that may rise their dividend output within the next years. Divided growers are great.
Sure, those dividend stocks are not a one-way ticket for success. There are also many companies that have underperformed the market in recent years, remember Avon Products. In an earlier article, I've complied 9 undervalued stocks with an impressive dividend history.
Also check out my analysis about stocks with a nealy safe dividend.
A growing dividend is a good sign for investors and lifts up their regular income. Please share your thoughts about my ideas by leaving a comment. Thank you for reading and contributing.
