3 Top Dividend Stocks to Buy Right Now
These three vastly different stocks have good earnings growth prospects in the coming years and look set to increase their dividends accordingly. Let's take a look at why railroad Union Pacific Corporation (NYSE: UNP), electrical products company Hubbell Incorporated (NYSE: HUBB) and boat and boat engine manufacturer Brunswick Corporation (NYSE: BC) are stocks worth buying.
Despite the doom and gloom around the industrial economy in 2020, it's been a pretty good year for the Class 1 U.S. railroads on the market. All the railroads reported good earnings and gave guidance that suggested they could improve their operating ratios (OR) even as carload volumes are set to stagnate in 2020. For reference, the OR is a key industry metric measuring operating expenses divided by revenue, so you're looking for a lower number.
