Globe says ZCL, others have record of boosting payouts

The Globe and Mail attempts to identify stocks able to withstand a rise in interest rates while maintaining a dividend in its Tuesday edition. The Globe's Emily Halverson-Duncan writes in the Number Cruncher column that a concern among investors is the inevitable future of rising interest rates, and what the effect will be on their investments. With you hold dividend-paying stocks, it is understandable why an increase in rates may be concerning. As interest rates rise, Ms. Halverson-Duncan sees a sell-off in dividend stocks as investors shift their money toward the higher yielding bonds. However, it is very important to distinguish between dividend-paying stocks and dividend-growing stocks. Dividend-paying stocks are just that -- stocks that pay a dividend, whereas dividend growers not only pay a dividend, but also have a record of increasing their dividends consistently over time. These stocks are typically more stable in nature and are less likely to be as heavily affected by changes in macroeconomic conditions, such as interest rate hikes. Companies that are more likely to withstand an increase in interest rates are ZCL Composites, Brookfield Asset Management, Magna International, Enghouse Systems and goeasy.
