2 of the Best Dividend Stocks You Forgot About
If you flip on the television for stock-market news, you're likely to be bombarded by newsworthy developments from exciting stocks. Companies in Silicon Valley, massive financial institutions, and even Detroit automakers dominate for good reason: They're extremely interesting! But one great thing about the stock market is that boring companies can excel just as easily. And while Iron Mountain Incorporated (NYSE: IRM) and Procter & Gamble (NYSE: PG) won't catch your eye on TV, they're two great dividend stocks that you probably forgot all about.
Most publicly traded companies seek growth -- through expansion of product lines, reaching new markets, and acquisitions, to name a few strategies -- but it's not nearly as often that we hear about an addition-by-subtraction strategy. That's what Procter & Gamble has been trying to sell its investors on, and there's definitely an argument to be made that it's the right move for the massive company.
