If you’re under 40, you’ve probably been told to ignore dividend stocks.

That advice might be wrong.

Investor @MArgersinger explains why some of the market’s biggest long-term winners pay dividends — and why younger investors shouldn’t dismiss them.

@HighburyGuy Got this one wrong. Overvalued the idea that "mission critical" agencies would maintain office demand post-COVID. Underestimated (didn't anticipate) the Trump administration's gutting of federal agencies and leases. And $DEA had too much leverage for an adverse scenario. 🤦‍♂️

If you're not a member of the Fool, stay tuned. I'd like to let this bake for our members for the time being before sharing them publicly. Thanks for understanding!

@fools_gd If I raised the dividend growth threshold to 15%, the number of companies would drop to just 53.

At 20%, there would be just 21.

@SarcazTreeguy Amazing book. I'm about 60% through. Not exactly revisionist history, but history through a very capitalistic/economic lens. Learning new things every chapter.

@MichelleK444 @DavidGFool @themotleyfool Just got uploaded! https://t.co/tDlKknnOWo

[Matthew Argersinger @MArgersinger]

As discussed on today's Dividends Show on @themotleyfool Fool LIVE, 64 companies with dividend yields above 3% and 5-year annual dividend growth of at least 10%.

In the world of dividends, that's having your cake and eating it too!

@VivekChirps @themotleyfool Just added a column with 5-year annualized total return data.

[Matthew Argersinger @MArgersinger]

@VivekChirps @themotleyfool Good point!

[Matthew Argersinger @MArgersinger]

@MichelleK444 @DavidGFool @themotleyfool Not sure why it hasn't been uploaded yet. I'll check first thing in the morning if it still isn't up.

[Matthew Argersinger @MArgersinger]

@StockMarketGMR I plan to update the sheet post end of Q3 in early October. Thanks for your patience!

[Matthew Argersinger @MArgersinger]

In a rough day when most market indexes are down 2%+, it's kind of interesting that $MELI is up 1%.

Very interesting, actually.

[Matthew Argersinger @MArgersinger]

@GrassRootsNY True. Not something you love to see.

[Matthew Argersinger @MArgersinger]

Not sure when or how this all ends, but I would view the following as can't-miss, generational buying opportunities:

$AMZN below $90
$DIS below $80
$GOOG below $95 (post-split)
$HD below $250
$MTN below $200
$PLD below $100

What are you watching?

[Matthew Argersinger @MArgersinger]

@alien_investor Sorry, wasn't able to respond sooner due to disclosure rules. I added to my $NKE position after last week's drubbing. I due have concerns about management here, but undeniable brand strength, super balance sheet, and I expect the dividend growth trajectory to hold.
