Welcome to Dividend Tycoon
Dividend Tycoon is your tool to finding some of the best dividend paying stocks available. Dividend paying stocks won’t make you instantly rich, it’s doubtful any of them will be the next Microsoft, but they will give you more than just normal stocks capital gains, they also give you incoming cash flow.
Capital gains are a great way to make money in an up market, but in the market we have had over the past year, almost all companies have created negative capital gains. If you had purchased Chico’s (CHS) two years ago at $27.25 per share your stock would currently be trading at $7.25 per share.
Companies paying dividends can have the same negative capital gains as companies not paying dividends, but dividend payers also have the added advantage of cash flow. If you had purchased Nordic American Tanker Shipping (NAT) two years ago at $44 per share, it would currently be worth $33 per share. But during that time you would also have gotten cash flow of $8.11 per share.
