Buying the dips: 5 supercharged dividend growers that crashed
Double digit dividend growers down more than 15% recently
For this post, we are using the dividend hike database to search for the best dividend growth stocks that were hit hard by the Trump tariffs. We select stocks that are down by 15% or more over the past week/month, yet consistently deliver double-digit dividend hikes. Even better: these stocks have often already announced a double-digit dividend increase for the first quarter of 2025.
Now that stock prices are under pressure, even the best dividend growers are being heavily punished on the stock market, which creates exciting opportunities for long-term investors who focus on quality stocks with a strong dividend track record. Of course, stock prices could go even lower in the coming period, but you can either wait for that to happen or gradually take advantage of the sharp price declines. After all, top stocks are currently available at prices well below their all-time highs from just a few months ago.
We are selecting five stocks from the United States that:
Have dropped significantly in recent weeks,
Have increased their dividend for at least 15 consecutive years,
Increase their dividend by an average of more than 10% per year, and
Preferably have already announced their dividend increase for 2025.
The latter is not a strict requirement, but for those stocks that have not yet announced a hike for 2025, we expect a double-digit increase.
The selection is very broad at the moment, which is always the case during a selloff that also drags down the more expensive, better dividend growers. Alle of our five stocks are Dividend Heroes, which makes sense, as they are by definition the very best dividend growth stocks available!
