At Dividend.com, we’ve been on a mission since our founding in 2009 to help investors and retirees everywhere get the income they need.

Save the headache and rely on the +$300k/year we spend on research.

Our investment process generates quality dividend income in up and down markets. You can rely on the +$300k per year we spend on research and data for only a small fraction of the cost to you. We’re here to help you through retirement. Our focus is on finding quality dividend payers, so that you can focus on enjoying the good life.

How we find the best dividend stocks.

Only the best dividend stocks are considered for the portfolio.

We run the industry’s most demanding quality dividend screening test across +2,500 dividend stocks. Can a company afford their dividend? How likely are they to increase their dividend? What are their long-term earnings prospects? Do they have too much debt? How did the business perform in recent recessions? Are there other operating risks that pose a threat to their dividend policy? We assign strict thresholds for such questions and our research team performs further analysis. We track macro news, industry trends, competitive dynamics and specific company reports and then incorporate this understanding into a final decision for the portfolio, which is monitored daily.

How the portfolio is setup to pay the best dividends.

Targeting a mix of income and returns.

Designed for investors with moderate risk tolerance, this portfolio optimizes for a blend of yield strength, dividend safety and price momentum. Holdings conentration risk management strikes a balance between over-diversification, where owning too many stocks can dilute performance, and concentrated bets. The portfolio consists of 10 to 15 equally-weighted holdings, which may come from any of the eleven sectors and may include a variety of security types including stocks, REITs and MLPs.

The daily newsletter gives a nice overview of current market conditions. I especially appreciate “My Watchlist”, where I can find dividend yields, ex-div days and the next payout information.”
