The stock of companies that pay out a portion of their earnings to a class of shareholders on a regular basis are known as Dividend Stocks. Dividend investing provides investors with steady cash flow over the long term. Most dividends are paid out on a quarterly basis, but some are paid out monthly, annually, or even once in the form of a special dividend.

Larger, established companies with predictable profits are often the best dividend payers and industry sectors such as Basic Materials, Oil & Gas, Banks & Financial, Health Care and Utilities maintain a regular record of dividend payments
