Over time, dividend income has comprised a significant portion of long-term stock gains. And dividend payouts have been moving nicely higher as corporations have become more willing to share the wealth. Even better, over the long term, dividend-paying stocks have delivered better total return performance than non-dividend payers and generally have done so with lower volatility. Not quite the Holy Grail, but higher returns and lower risk, along with a generous income stream, make for a powerful combination, especially when stocks are attractively priced!
