Beat the Dow Jones With This Cash-Gushing Dividend Stock

"Beating the Dow" means outperforming the venerable Dow Jones Industrial Average, that slowly changing collection of 30 large American companies that serves as a benchmark for the health of the economy.

While figuring out when to trade selected stocks versus simply buying an index fund that tracks the Dow is a time-consuming and challenging endeavor for many, you don't have to search too hard for stocks that beat the Dow.

There are a number of well-established companies that have done just that over the years, including American Tower (NYSE: AMT), a cellphone tower pioneer that now supports wireless networks with about 225,000 sites in 25 countries on six continents.
