Better Buy: Johnson & Johnson vs. Proctor & Gamble
Dividend stocks are the best way to invest if stock market volatility scares you away from investing your hard-earned money. And not just any Dividend stocks, but Dividend Kings -- companies that have increased their dividend for at least 50 years in a row -- would be a safe bet for investors in such a market scenario.
The two companies I'll be discussing in this article are longtime dividend payers in the consumer and healthcare industries. Both Proctor Gamble (NYSE: PG) and Johnson Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) have earned the title of Dividend King. These companies have survived many downturns and will most likely survive more. However, only one of them has an edge over the other with long-term growth prospects.
