A MarketWatch report by Philip Van Doorn.
"Dividend stocks are in a sweet spot, as they bridge the difference between growth and income.
Among dividend stocks, so-called Dividend Aristocrats are considered by some to be the cream of the crop.
Companies with long track records of annual dividend increases, as a group, have performed well over a long period. And some have dividend yields that are high enough to attract income-seeking investors, which may be important in the coming years if the Federal Reserve follows the European Central Bank down the road of incredibly low — or even negative — interest rates."
