3 Top Dividend Aristocrats To Own Forever

Few stocks deserve consideration as "own forever" investments. However, the Dividend Aristocrats list of companies which are S&P 500 components, and have increased their regular dividend every year for 25 straight years, has more than a few stocks that investors could own for their entire lives.

But just because a company is on the list now, doesn't guarantee that it will either stay there. Nor that its long-term dividend growth will make it worth owning forever. So we asked three of our contributing investors to offer up a current Dividend Aristocrat which they think are worth owning forever. They came up with Dover Corp (NYSE: DOV), W W Grainger Inc (NYSE: GWW), and Nucor Corporation (NYSE: NUE).

These stocks have been like money trees for investors. We think they have what it takes to keep performing.
