| 4 Upcoming Dividend Increases |
I focus on companies with consistent dividend increases, indicating strong financial health and stability, to provide both income and total returns for investors. My investment strategy involves buying, holding, and adding to positions in companies that pay increasing dividends and outperform relevant benchmarks. I use data from the “U.S. Dividend Champions” spreadsheet and NASDAQ to track companies with at least 5 years of dividend growth history. |
