10 Dividend Growth Stocks For June 2019

Many dividend growth investors rely on the CCC list for their research. Focusing on stocks trading on U.S. exchanges, the list contains nearly 900 stocks that have consistently increased their calendar year payouts for at least the past 5 years. This list and an accompanying spreadsheet providing key data are maintained by Justin Law.

With my monthly 10 Dividend Growth Stocks series, I rank a subset of CCC stocks and present the 10 top-ranked stocks for further research. My ranking system assigns letter grades to stocks relative to their performance among sector peers. Having a sector-oriented ranking system avoids the problems associated with ranking dissimilar stocks.

This month I decided to rank CCC stocks in the Communication Services sector.

The latest CCC list (dated 05/31/19) contains 884 stocks. There are 137 Dividend Champions with increasing calendar year payouts for the past 25 years; 232 Dividend Contenders (past 10-24 years); and 515 Dividend Challengers (past 5-9 years).

There are only 18 Communication Services sector stocks. I ranked 13 of these stocks after excluding stocks trading over the counter, stocks with market caps below $1 billion, and stocks with yields below 1%.

To see the top 10 ranked stocks for June 2019, please read this article at Seeking Alpha. As usual, I provide fair value estimates and key metrics, as well as F.A.S.T. Graphs charts for three of the top 10 ranked stocks.
