The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) consists of 30 blue-chip stocks. For dividend investors, this is an interesting list, since most companies pay a dividend. Many stocks are able to increase their dividend for several consecutive years.
The top-yielding Dow stocks all have dividends that are well above average yields in the stock market. Therefore they could be a reason for income investors to consider buying them, next to the fact that the dow stocks are also blue chips.
