19 Blue Chip Stocks for Incredibly Reliable Dividends 19 Blue Chip Stocks For Incredibly Reliable Dividends Generally, blue chip stocks are those of the highest quality, and many provide reliable dividends. Investors may be familiar with the term blue chip stock. This is because blue chips were traditionally the most valuable at a casino. And while investors should never associate the stock market with gambling, blue-chip stocks refer to the best of the best. We believe blue chip stocks are those that pay dividends to shareholders, and have increased their dividends each year for at least 10 years in a row. Blue chips offer safe dividends, that continue to be increased even during economic downturns. 19 Blue Chip Stocks The following 19 stocks qualify as blue chips, and are among the most dependable stocks for reliable dividends. 1. Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) No list of blue-chip stocks would be complete without Johnson & Johnson, the largest U.S. healthcare company by market cap. Johnson & Johnson is a diversified health care company and a leader in the area of pharmaceuticals (~49% of sales), medical devices (~34% of sales), and consumer products (~17% of sales). Further, Johnson & Johnson generates annual sales in excess of $90 billion. Johnson & Johnson has increased its dividend for 58 consecutive years. With over 50 consecutive years of reliable dividend increases, Johnson & Johnson is on the exclusive list of Dividend Kings. Related read: The complete list of all 31 Dividend Kings. 2. Procter & Gamble (PG) Procter & Gamble is a consumer staples giant with a large portfolio of leading brands. Some of its notable brands include Pampers, Tide, Bounty, Charmin, Gillette, Old Spice, Febreze, Crest, Oral-B, Olay, and many more. Also, the company generated $71 billion in sales in fiscal 2020. Procter & Gamble has paid a dividend for 130 years and increased its dividend for 64 consecutive years. This is due in large part to the company’s ability to withstand recessions. For fiscal 2021, Procter & Gamble expects sales growth of 5% -6%. In addition, the company anticipates 8% to 10% core earnings-per-share growth from last year. 3. McDonald’s Corporation (MCD) McDonald’s is the world’s largest publicly-traded fast food company, with about 39,000 locations in over 100 countries. Moreover, approximately 93% of the stores are independently owned and operated. Its accelerated franchising activity over the past few years has helped boost McDonald’s profit margins, and overall earnings-per-share. McDonald’s competitive advantage is its global scale, immense network of restaurants, well-known brand and real estate assets. McDonald’s has raised its dividend every year since paying its first dividend in 1976, qualifying the company as a Dividend Aristocrat.

(WMT) Walmart is a discount retail giant, serving around 230 million customers each week. Walmart is one of the most recession-resistant businesses investors will find. Because it focuses on everyday low prices, consumers actually shop more at Walmart when times are tough. This operational strength was evident in 2020, when the coronavirus pandemic wreaked havoc on the U.S. economy. In the 2020 fourth quarter, total revenue increased 7% as comparable sales grew 8.5% year-over-year. E- commerce is a major growth driver for Walmart, as more consumers take their shopping online. Walmart U.S. ecommerce revenue increased 69% in the fourth quarter. Walmart also raised its dividend by 1.9% to a new annualized payout of $2.20 per share. This was Walmart’s 48th consecutive year of dividend increases. Also, it approved a new $20 billion share repurchase program. 5. Colgate-Palmolive (CL) Colgate-Palmolive has been in existence for more than 200 years, having been founded in 1806. It operates in many consumer staples markets, including Oral Care, Personal Care, Home Care, and Pet Nutrition. These segments afford the company more than $17 billion in annual revenue. Colgate-Palmolive is a blue-chip stock because the dividend is highly safe and reliable. This is a recession- resistant stock given the consistent demand for its products, and its competitive advantage is found in the dominant brands it owns. Also, while Colgate-Palmolive operates in highly competitive product categories, it has a strong share in many of them as well as the ability to maintain pricing power.

Since that time, the company has grown into a food industry giant with nearly $10 billion in annual sales. The company sells its products in 80 countries worldwide, and a few of its core brands include Skippy, SPAM, Applegate, Justin’s, and more than 30 others. Hormel is a member of the Dividend Kings, having increased its dividend for 55 consecutive years. Its impressive dividend history is due to its strong brands. Also, according to Hormel, it has nearly 40 brands that are either #1 or #2 in their category. 7. PepsiCo (PEP) PepsiCo is a global food and beverage company that generates over $70 billion in annual sales. It has a diversified business model that is roughly evenly split between food and beverages. Indeed, the company’s major brands include Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Frito-Lay, Gatorade, Tropicana, and Quaker.

For 2020, revenue grew 4.8% to $70.4 billion as organic (currency-neutral) sales increased 4.3% for the full year. Adjusted earnings-per-share totaled $5.52, which was essentially flat from 2019. PepsiCo has increased its dividend for over 40 years in a row and currently yields 3.0%. Related read: How to Sell Covered Calls for Monthly Income 8. The Coca-Cola Company (KO) Coca-Cola is a global beverage giant that competes directly with PepsiCo. Coca-Cola is the world’s largest beverage company, as it owns or licenses more than 500 unique non-alcoholic brands. Since the company’s founding in 1886, it has spread to more than 200 countries worldwide. Indeed, its brands account for about 2 billion servings of beverages worldwide every day, producing roughly $36 billion in annual revenue. Acquisitions are a key component of Coca-Cola’s future growth strategy. For example, Coca-Cola acquired Costa in a $4.9 billion acquisition, which gave it instant exposure to coffee, which is a growth market. Coca-Cola stock yields 3.3% and the company has increased its dividend for over 50 years in a row. 9. 3M Company (MMM) 3M is a diversified global industrial manufacturer. For example, its most popular consumer brands are Post-It and Scotch tape.

It manufactures many popular brands, including Huggies, Pull-Ups, Kotex, Depend, Kleenex, Scott, Cottonelle, and Viva.

Fourth-quarter organic sales were up 5%, with net selling prices up 3% along with 2% higher volumes. The company guided for organic sales growth of 1% to 2% for 2021 and for earnings-per-share growth of flat to +3% for the upcoming year. Along with fourth-quarter earnings, Kimberly-Clark raised its dividend for the 49th consecutive year. 11. Realty Income (O) Realty Income is a Real Estate Investment Trust, or REIT, which means its business model is to own real estate properties that are leased out to tenants. Some of its biggest tenants include Walgreens, 7-Eleven, Dollar General, FedEx, and Walmart. Realty Income has a high-quality portfolio consisting of over 6,500 properties leased to more than 600 different tenants in 50 industries. Realty Income has a long history of consistent dividends. Even better, Realty Income pays its dividend each month, rather than the more typical quarterly or semi-annual payment schedules. The company has paid 608 consecutive monthly dividends over its 52-year operating history, and it has raised its dividend 109 times since its IPO in 1994. This REIT’s history of dividend growth and stability makes it a favorite for real estate investing exposure. Related read: How to Sell Weekly or Monthly Put Options For Income 12.

    Bloomsburg Investment Group Equity Analysis The Procter & Gamble Company (PG) Analyst: Gerrick Hardy, Class of 2021 Trevor Luzi, Mackenzie Gross, Class of 2022 Bloomsburg Investment Group Opinion: After our group's thorough analysis, we believe it is in the best interest of the group if our holding in Procter & Gamble (PG) is partially liquidated. Although our group remains bullish about the company, we think taking some profits from PG's recent run-up and allocating funds elsewhere in the sector would be most beneficial. While the company has provided strong organic growth in each of the two previous quarters, a number of headwinds remain in the way which will likely restrict future growth. A stronger U.S. Dollar has essentially offset the organic revenue growth, and the rise in transportation costs and commodity prices has and will likely continue to squeeze the margins of PG. With consumer tastes trending towards less expensive generic brands, customers may not respond favorably to recent price increases of some of Procter & Gamble’s largest brands. Our sector believes PG is currently trading at a premium that will not be satisfied with future growth. Despite all of this, we are still bullish because of the high dividend yield that the company has increased for 62 consecutive years, wide array of brand offerings, and brand loyalty and recognition, among other factors. Considering cross-current risks that exist in the macroeconomic environment and the potential of an upcoming recession or economic downturn, Procter & Gamble will continue to provide stable growth and hedge our portfolio. Corporate Summary: Corporate Details: Name Procter & Gamble Co The Procter & Gamble Company, founded in 1837, is Ticker PG a global manufacturer and distributor of household Domicile United States goods.

It is, however, typical of its time and very likely made perfect sense to its original audience. In the 1930s, in the middle of the Great Depres- sion, anxiety about losing one’s husband—and thus one’s economic well-being—to divorce was not unfounded. Targeted to a new generation of stay-at-home housewives anxious about their exclusion from the modern world of their hus- bands, during a period when losing one’s source of income could mean abject poverty or worse, in a society where daily bathing was still rare but where self-doubt about personal hygiene was on the rise, such an ad may have pushed just the right buttons.
