7 Stocks With The Longest Dividend Growth History

Many investors love dividend growth but there are only a dozen stocks with a dividend history over 50 consecutive years. Those stocks are called "Dividend Kings." Today I'd like to highlight stocks that could hit a new record this year by jumping over the magic 60-year barrier.

As of today, only one stock has managed this goal; it's the water utility American States Water (NYSE:AWR). Attached are seven top stocks that could hit the magic 60-year mark within the next two years: Emerson Electric (NYSE:EMR), Procter & Gamble (NYSE:PG), 3M (NYSE:MMM), Nomura Holdings (NYSE:NMR), Dover (NYSE:DOV), Genuine Parts Company (NYSE:GPC) and Parker-Hannifin (NYSE:PH).
