8 Interesting Income Stocks For Investors With A Long Horizon

When it comes to building long-term wealth, there is no better means than the stock market. 

Even during times of massive social, economic, and geopolitical instability, blue-chip dividend stocks have shown an incredible ability to climb “the wall of worry.”


However, even better than dividend stocks in general are dividend growth stocks, which studies have found to outperform the broader market over time.

This is because companies that pay growing dividends, such as Dividend Aristocrats, need to be more careful and selective with their capital allocation, meaning maintain stronger balance sheets and only invest in the best growth opportunities.

Of course, finding great dividend growth stocks, and building a high-quality dividend portfolio isn’t always easy. You need to not just focus on the size of the current yield and potential payout growth potential but also make sure that a company’s earnings and cash flows can make the dividend reliable and secure.

The following is a look at nine fresh-faced dividend stocks that have only begun a regular payout sometime over the past five years:
