5 Stocks Each Safe Haven Investor Must Like Because Of Their Constant Rising Dividends And Attractive Fundamentals

Looking for stocks that belong to the “dividend aristocrat” list represents a good place to start the search for higher yields. Dividend Aristocrats include companies that have raised their dividends for at least 25 consecutive years, giving an indication of their financial prudence. Typically these are large, mature companies that grow revenue and earnings slowly.

Keep in mind that investing in conservatively managed companies such as these comes with a little more risk than investing in a savings account but it also provides the potential for a higher yield and small capital gains to boost your future income. 

Let’s take a look at five companies that consistently give their shareholders raises. Please let me know if you like some of them by leaving a small comment. Thank you.
