RE: An Introduction to Dividend Growth Investing | A Safe, Growing Income Stream

in #investing7 years ago

I am a huge fan of DGI.
Another good way of looking at it is not focusing on dividend growth rates but in buying strong companies with decent regular increases when those companies are on sale. So something like JNJ isn't going to set records on the div growth rate but during the next bear market you could probably lock in some serious future growth at a good price.

Glad to hear it! Good advice. As we keep posting, we'll get into more about our specific strategies for DGI, but we invest in companies that are the leaders in their respective industries rather than looking at dividend yield (a metric that many other investors spend too much focus on). Thanks for sharing your advice!
