        <![CDATA[Why not looking at the safest Dividend Aristocrats? Dividend Aristocrats are stocks that have raised dividends over a period of more than 25 consecutive years and they are part of the S&amp;P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index. I’ve tried to summarize only stocks with a very low volatility, measured by a low beta ratio (a value of less than 0.5). Fourteen companies remained of which six have a yield of more than 3 percent. Five stocks have a buy or better recommendation.  Here are the results:<br/><br/><a rel='nofollow' target='_blank' href='http://bit.ly/zMXMqX'>http://bit.ly/zMXMqX</a><br/><br/>The average price to earnings ratio (P/E ratio) amounts to 17.84 and forward P/E ratio is 14.05.
