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.
