2 Dow Dividend Giants to Buy and Hold for Decades
While most of Wall Street is focused on the next few quarters, your main advantage as an investor is the ability to look past that volatility and focus on the bigger picture. Retirement portfolios are built over decades, after all, and so there's no pressure on you to show positive results in any given three-month period.
Dividend stocks help an investor maintain this long-term focus. These companies tend to be well-established businesses with predictable earnings streams. And reinvesting their regularly growing payouts can amplify returns over the decades.
With these positive factors in mind, let's look at two excellent dividend options for your portfolio. Read on for some reasons why Procter Gamble (NYSE: PG) and Home Depot (NYSE: HD) might be worth holding for many years to come.
