“Dividend Aristocrats” typically refer to stocks that have consistently paid and raised their dividends for many years, often 25 or more. This list of US dividend aristocrats comes straight from the holdings of the ProShares S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Dividend ETF “NOBL“, which also ranked in my earlier list of top S&P 500 ETFs. The main addition here vs going straight to the ProShares page are the links to the dividend histories of each name on Nasdaq.com.
