They want to own the stocks of companies with proven track records; companies who have survived previous recessions.\n\nRemember the focus is on the quality of the dividend, we are not looking for the highest yielding stocks...this is a HUGE mistake. \n\nHow do you separate a quality dividend stock from another? One easy way for you is to use dividend.com. This is a FREE website. \nYou can type in the ticker symbol for a stock and see it’s dividend growth track record. If you’re looking for a great dividend stock, you want to pick a stock with a long track record of dividend increases.\n\nFurthermore you should look at 3 key ratios using Morningstar.com\n\nOperating margin - a measure of profitability - how much of each dollar of revenues is left over after both costs of goods sold and operating expenses are considered.

FCF/Sales expressed as a percentage is often used to find 'cash cow' stocks.\n\nReturn on invested capital (ROIC) is a calculation used to assess a company's efficiency at allocating the capital under its control to profitable investments. Return on invested capital gives a sense of how well a company is using its money to generate returns.\n\nPepsiCo (PEP) - 46 years - yields 3.36% - 118% of share price appreciation over the past decade.\nImproving revenues and earnings\nStrengthening operating margins over the past decade.\nROIC greater than 10% over the past decade\nFCF/sales hovering around 10%.\n\nStarbucks (SBUX) - 8 years - yields 2.27% - 1263% of share price appreciation over the past decade.\nImproving revenues and earnings\nStable operating margin\nStrong ROIC, 44% for 2018!\nA history of strong FCF/sales, 40% for 2018.\n\nAbbVie (ABBV) - 46 years - yields 4.64% - 143% of share price appreciation over the past decade.\nImproving revenues and earning\nImproving operating margin\nStrong ROIC, 21% in 2018\nA history of very strong FCF/sales - 37% for 2018"
