This'n'That; Investing Research

Dividend Investment Ideas [The original list that I found at http://dividendsvalue.com/analysis/stock-ideas/ had stocks that were lined out. These included stocks that had "flat" and declining dividends. I have removed these from the list below. I've added the most recent stock price I could find and an asterisk [*] to indicate those with yield of 5% or greater. Remember, due-diligence is an integral part of investing!!]
  • Stock Ideas Aristocrats [Aristocrat], US Broad Dividend Achievers [Achiever], International Dividend Achievers [Intl. Achiever] and U.S. Dividend Champions [Champion]. The duplications have been eliminated and stocks are crossed out when I learn that they have either cut their dividend or fail to raise it. For additional information on each of the above lists, please click here. Not every stock listed here is a great dividend investment, but virtually all great dividend investments are on this list.
