Companies that have raised dividends the most over the past 10 years have tended to outperform the broader market — by a lot. We looked beyond those in the S&P 500 to highlight these Dividend Aristocrats.

Some investors are interested in stocks that pay high dividend yields for a source of income. Others believe it is better to focus on total returns over long periods. The Dividend Aristocrats are a group of stocks that appeal to both camps.

Connection between dividends and inflation MarketWatch’s Mark Hulbert advises investors to pay attention to dividends when inflation is high. He points to data showing that companies in the benchmark S&P 500 Index SPX, -0.06% tend to increase dividends at a higher rate than inflation. The Dividend Aristocrats don’t necessarily provide high income — many have low current dividend yields. The idea is that a commitment by management to increase payouts to owners over time might correlate with better long-term performance.
