7 Dividend Growth Stocks For March 2022

I'm a little late with my March picks for TheStreet.com, but here goes! 

Every month, I present seven dividend growth stocks from my Dividend Radar watch list for further analysis and possible investment. I use different screens every month to highlight specific aspects of dividend growth [DG] investing. This month, income investors will find some high-yielding candidates worth consideration. 

I screened for discounted DG stocks in Dividend Radar yielding at least 4% and a 5-year dividend growth rate of 6% or higher. I also screened for DG stocks with dividend increase streaks of 10 or more years.

Home Run Number 43

A stock in my portfolio that doubles my original capital outlay in total returns is a Home Run stock. I enjoy writing these milestone articles, as they remind me why I'm still a passionate and enthusiastic dividend growth investor!

In December, I announced my 42nd Home Run stock, CVS Health Corporation (CVS). CVS just recently announced a dividend increase again after having frozen its dividend for several years. Nevertheless, CVS had delivered total returns of 39% on an annualized basis when it achieved Home Run status.
