In an unpredictable market that shifts between greed and fear, income investors who own Dividend Kings sleep better at night, almost assured income will keep flowing.
Dividend Kings are an elite group of companies that have consistently increased their dividends for at least the last 50 consecutive years. Unlike the Dividend Aristocrats, Kings don’t need to be S&P 500 listed. Regardless, I think it’s easy to conclude that if a company can increase its dividend for 50+ years, they aren’t just survivors of market downturns, recessions, and volatility; they thrived through them.
