Five Great Dividend Reinvestment Stocks

Buy-and-hold investors get more bang for their buck when they select growth stocks that pay reliable, increasing dividends and then reinvest them. Small, but consistent, increases in quarterly dividends add up to large dividend yields (buy price remains constant and dividends increase) over time.

And many years of price appreciation for a stock and the extra shares that you purchase with dividend reinvestment really add up to increase your total return.

Consider these five well-known consumer stocks for your dividend-reinvestment portfolio. Notice how their dividends have increased in ten years.
