Dividend stocks distribute a portion of the companys earnings to investors on a regular basis. Most American dividend stocks pay investors a set amount each quarter, and the top ones increase their payouts over time, so investors can build an annuity-like cash stream. Companies that pay dividends tend to be well-established, so dividend stocks may also add some stability to your portfolio. If you're looking for ways to receive regular dividend payments, you generally have two options: stocks that pay dividends and funds that hold stocks that pay dividends.
