The S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats index includes members of the S&P 500 Index that have increased their dividends every year for at least the last 25 consecutive years. The list is updated at the beginning of each calendar year, and typically, around 50 stocks qualify for inclusion. There were no changes for 2017 and the list currently includes 50 stocks. Historically, since their 2005 inception, the Dividend Aristocrats have produced more or less the same returns as the S&P 500 index. The major exception was 2008 when the Aristocrats only dropped 22% compared to the S&P 500's 37% loss. DD's 7 Best Aristocrats DD has developed a strategy for isolating the seven stocks on each year's Aristocrats' list that have the best mid-term (12-month) return prospects. Here's how you would have fared holding DD's 7 Best over the past nine years compared to the full list of 50 or so Aristocrats as well as to the S&P 500.
Data shown above is for January portfolios and is for information only. Stocks are risky business and past performance does not predict future returns.
