Morningstar Video on High Dividend Growth Stocks - Dividend Watcher - 06-03-2026
Yesterday I came across a recent (May 2026) YouTube video about high dividend growers. It's titled "10 Exceptional Stocks With Double-Digit Dividend Raises".
From the video, I guess Morningstar does the ranking every year. The criteria are 5 years of dividend growth per share of >10% each of the five years, total dividends paid (see cash flow statements if you're looking for it) >10% for 5 years, and current yield greater than 1%. This is a little different than the usually mentioned DGI dividend growth rate which is a compounded rate and can survive a less than 10% growth rate in some of those 5 years.
Interesting list: ACN, SNA, NEE, ZTS, SBAC, MCSI, DPZ, TJX, MSI, INTU.
Of these, I currently own ACN & NEE in one or more of our portfolios. Used to own TJX until it cut in 2020 due to the pandemic but has since come back even higher when they cut. I'd be interested again at a better entry point. Even though I prefer a greater than 10 year record, I'm going to take a closer look at the rest in my "spare" time.
