3 Dividend Stocks to Buy and Hold Forever

Dividends are an important factor for many investors. The quarterly and annual payouts to shareholders can have a big impact on a portfolio’s growth over time. Dividend stocks can also serve as an income stream to people in retirement. For this reason, many investors seek out stocks that have high dividend yields. Even some of the most successful and richest investors are focused on dividend payments.

Warren Buffett, the Oracle of Omaha himself, is a notorious dividend collector. Consider that in 2021 Buffett collected $672 million in dividend payments from the 400 million shares of Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO) that he owns and you get an idea of the impact dividends can have and why certain investors appreciate and rely on them. Here are three dividend stocks for investors to buy and hold forever: AbbVie (NYSE:ABBV), Kroger (NYSE:KR) and Chevron (NYSE:CVX).
