Happy Holidays my friends! Tis the season of giving so here are 3 dividend aristocrats that you might want to consider adding to your dividend portfolio. Federal Realty Investment Trust, Essex Property Trust, and one of our stocks, Realty Income.
Dividend aristocrats are a group of about 50 companies in the S&P 500 index that have increased their dividends for 25 consecutive years or more. Dividend growth investors believe that buying shares in these types of companies can lead to long-term wealth creation by way of dividend income and capital value appreciation. Dividend growth investing is often considered a “slow & steady” way to reach financial independence with sustainable passive income throughout retirement.
With December coming to an end, this week’s dividend portfolio update is a good one. Pepsi, Newtek, and Realty Income are among this week’s green stocks that are helping to keep us up over 10%! And to keep on giving, if you start investing with M1 Finance using this link, you can get some free money to add to your portfolio or spend elsewhere! Check out the video to see how our dividend portfolio is doing this Christmas, and consider starting your dividend portfolio to grow your money.
