This monthly series systematically evaluates dividend growth stocks to pinpoint top investment opportunities. My comprehensive dividend growth watchlist encompasses over 720 stocks, each demonstrating a consistent record of at least five consecutive years of dividend increases. To identify compelling candidates, I employ a diverse set of screening methodologies each month.
The selection process includes a thorough quality assessment, where stocks are ranked based on their intrinsic quality scores. For June 2026, I am presenting the top 10 dividend growth stocks, meticulously chosen for their potential. These selections meet strict criteria, including an anticipated upside of at least 15% and an Adjusted Chowder Number of 12.0 or higher, indicating a strong combination of dividend yield and growth rate.
Furthermore, I intend to strategically bolster my positions in Microsoft (MSFT) and Intuit (INTU). This decision is driven by their current market undervaluation, as increasing my holdings in these companies aligns with my goal of achieving optimal portfolio weightings and maximizing long-term returns.
Investing in companies that consistently increase their dividends can be a powerful strategy for building long-term wealth. By focusing on quality and robust financial metrics, investors can cultivate a resilient portfolio capable of generating reliable income and capital appreciation. Such an approach emphasizes diligent research and a commitment to foundational investment principles, paving the way for sustained financial prosperity.
