The S&P 500 index (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) has a tiny 1.1% dividend yield. Coca-Cola 's (NYSE: KO) yield is 2.6% and Procter & Gamble 's (NYSE: PG) yield is 2.7%. The big story, however, is that Coca-Cola and P&G are both Dividend Kings, with over 50 years' worth of annual dividend increases behind each one. Here's why now could be a good time to buy one, or both, of them.

Coca-Cola makes beverages, such as soda. Procter & Gamble makes consumer products such as deodorant, toilet paper, and toothpaste.

This fact provides a very solid business foundation for both of these Dividend Kings .
