What is Dividend Growth Investing?
Investing in companies that consistently grow their dividend every year
Full Explanation
Instead of chasing yield, dividend growth investors look for companies that raise their payout year after year. A stock yielding 2% that grows its dividend 10% annually is more valuable long-term than a 6% yield that never grows.
Real-World Example
Dividend Aristocrats are S&P 500 companies that have raised dividends 25+ consecutive years.
Pro Tip
Dividend growth = management confidence in the future. Companies rarely raise dividends before bad times.
