Dividend Aristocrats are companies that have increased their dividends at least once per year, every year, for at least 25 straight years. The list is curated annually by S&P, and there’s a Dividend Aristocrats ETF that tracks their performance (the name is ProShares S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats ETF, symbol NOBL.)
When you invest in a Dividend Aristocrat or the Dividend Aristocrats ETF, you can not only count on receiving a quarterly dividend payment, but you can also rely on those payouts increasing every year.
