One of the best ways to build wealth is with dividend stocks – especially if they’re attached to solid companies with a strong history of earnings and dividend growth.
Here are five top dividend stocks you may want to consider today.
Company: Philip Morris International Inc. (SYM: PM) With a yield of 4.32%, Philip Morris is well-known as a cigarette company. However, with the number of smokers on the decline, the company has expanded its offerings to include heated tobacco products, vapor and nicotine pouches. All of which are seen as less harmful ways to consume nicotine. Helping, earnings haven’t been too shabby. In its most recent quarter, the company’s EPS of $1.91 beat estimates by nine cents. Revenue of $9.91 billion, up 8.4% year over year, beat by $220 million. Plus, its fiscal year 2024 guidance range of $6.85 to $6.91 beat estimates of $6.40. |
