The Dividend Investor brings to light one of the most profitable strategies for picking stocks ever devised. Based on the classic investment approach of Benjamin Graham, the father of security analysis, as well as the author's own research, the approach has consistently outperformed the market for two decades. The strategy is as simple as it is effective: namely, invest in the top five to ten dividend-yielding stocks from the Dow Jones Industrial Average and consistently reinvest the dividends. Since 1973, this approach has produced a 19.5 percent annual return, compared to a 12 percent return on the Dow. For investors who want a safe and effctive system for beating the stock market, The Dividend Investor can't be beat.

This book points out that even the smartest investors sometimes overlook the proven fact that the safest way to build wealth is simply to buy stocks that consistently pay dividends. The authors, in conjunction with Standard & Poor's, have distilled this sound investment philosophy into a user-friendly guide that shows you why dividends are a vital part of the investment equation, tells you what to look for in a dividend paying stock, contains valuable lists of stocks that help you pinpoint the dividend leaders, and even provides sample portfolios for people who want (or need) to live on their dividend income. The authors argue persuasively that dividends are excellent tools for analyzing conservative stock investments. What's more, they'll demonstrate that a portfolio of dividend-paying stocks can cut down on the overall volatility of your investment holdings.
