SHW - The 3 Safest Industrial Dividends Right Now
The stock market has been booming as vaccine hopes and a gridlocked U.S. government have been music to the industrial sector. For now, the pandemic continues to rage, and there remains a great deal of uncertainty as to how the American economy -- and the country's way of life -- will adjust to a post-pandemic environment.
Dividends provide income to investors in good times and bad. Dividend Aristocrats , an esteemed class of companies that have increased their dividend every year for at least 25 consecutive years, add an extra layer of certainty to that benefit. Sherwin-Williams (NYSE: SHW) , Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT) , and Illinois Tool Works (NYSE: ITW) are three Dividend Aristocrats that are outperforming the market and remain well-positioned to reward investors handsomely for years to come.
