20 Top High-Dividend Growth Stocks

Re tanker stocks, I don't think they have the durable competitive advantages that many of the 20 listed stocks do.

Of the 20 that are listed, though, I don't think Fifth Third Bank is well positioned going forward. Wrigley is, but it's a) a little on the pricey side and b) is getting bought out. I like Bank of America a lot, but I'm not sure they're going to be able to consistently grow their dividend after buying Countrywide (although they seem to have contained the losses so far).

I would say that GE and Pfizer are my favorites on the list. GE will see loads of infrastructure demand from emerging economies. Pfizer's pipeline may be dry, but their boatload of cash and extensive sales network mean that they can partner with or buy any firm with an exciting drug on favorable terms.
