Ask any dividend growth investor who’s been in the game for more than ten years which Dividend Kings they have in their portfolios, and I am willing to bet that they will 1) know exactly what you’re talking about, and 2) have several favorites to list out.
Dividend Kings are quality companies that have a history of consistent yearly dividend increases for 50 or more years. Some of them have even paid dividends for over a century. To put that into perspective, over the past 50 years, there have been five major economic meltdowns and at least 10 major global conflicts.
