5 Decades of Data Confirm Long-Term Dividend Investing Delivers Real Returns
Fifty years of market data says the same thing every time someone checks it: Dividend growers quietly beat the market with less drama along the way.
Every few years, someone declares dividend investing old-fashioned, a strategy for retirees content with slow, boring gains while everyone else chases the next big thing. Then someone actually pulls the data, and the boring strategy wins again.
I'll throw myself into this discussion, too. I've always been pretty skeptical of dividends because they feel boring, unsexy, and slow. I'm naturally drawn to faster gains, but I've looked at this enough times now that I've stopped being surprised by it. The numbers just make the case better than I ever could.
