Understanding Dividend Growth Categories

What makes a Dividend King?

Dividend Kings have increased their dividends for 50+ consecutive years, surviving recessions, market crashes, and industry disruptions. This is the highest honor in dividend investing.

What are Dividend Aristocrats?

Aristocrats are S&P 500 companies with 25+ years of consecutive dividend increases. They represent the gold standard for dividend growth investing with proven track records.

Why track Champions?

Companies with 10-24 years of increases often offer higher growth rates and better valuations than mature dividend stocks. They represent the future of dividend aristocracy.

Discovering Achievers

With 5-9 years of consecutive increases, Achievers are early-stage dividend growers. Identifying them early lets you benefit from years of compounding dividend growth.
