<p>股息收入对于长期投资者来说极为重要，因为它可以帮助提高股票的整体回报。然而，单纯追逐高收益股票并不一定是最佳或最安全的选择，因为这些分红并不总是可持续的。</p>
<p>相反，一个好的组合是关注安全的股息股票，这些股票的收益率高于平均水平，并且其股息也在相当高的速度增长，同时拥有强健的财务状况，使其能够在未来继续增加分红。</p>
<p>符合这一标准并且在过去五年中至少提高了 50% 股息的三只股票是 <strong>家得宝</strong>(HD -0.45%)、<strong>联合健康</strong>(UNH -0.20%) 和 <strong>新纪元能源</strong>(NEE 1.38%)。</p>
<p>以下是对每只股票的更详细分析，以及它们为何可以成为您长期考虑的优秀选择。</p>

<h2>1. 家得宝</h2>
<p>家得宝股票目前的收益率约为 2.2%，高于 <strong>标准普尔 500</strong> 的平均水平 1.2%。但持有这只零售股票的主要诱因是其股息在未来几年内有增长的潜力。该公司定期增加分红，目前的季度股息为 2.30 美元，比 2020 年支付的 1.50 美元增长了 53%。</p>
<p>即使在慷慨的增长下，家得宝的派息比率仍然保持在 62% 左右，这表明未来还有更多增长的空间。尽管零售商在经济环境严峻的情况下，消费者支出有所回落，但它仍预计本财年（截至 1 月）可比销售增长 1%。</p>
<p>凭借强大的品牌、良好的财务状况和令人印象深刻的股息，家得宝可以成为一个理想的长期持有股票。</p>
<h2>2. 联合健康</h2>
<p>在今年遭遇困境之前，联合健康通常并不以高收益著称。但由于医疗成本上升和对其增长的担忧，股票下跌超过 35%，在今年大部分时间里处于下行螺旋中。尽管沃伦·巴菲特投资该公司的消息带来了小幅反弹，但其股价仍大幅下跌。</p>
<p>目前，其收益率为 2.8%，在与标准普尔 500 比较时仍高于平均水平。但它真正出色的地方在于股息增长。它每季度向投资者支付 2.21 美元的股息，比 2020 年支付的 1.25 美元高出 77%。</p>
<p>尽管公司前景不佳可能使投资者不愿依赖该股票的股息，但联合健康的派息比率仍仅为 37%；这为公司继续支付和增加股息提供了充足的空间。</p>
<p>尽管今年对联合健康的担忧重重，但该公司并不处于危急状况。在今年的前六个月，其运营收入总计为 143 亿美元，同比下降 10%。尽管这令人失望，但这家健康保险公司仍处于强健的财务状况中，随着利用率的下降，未来应会有所改善。总体而言，这并不是一只看起来那么风险的股票。</p>
<h2>3. 新纪元能源</h2>
<p>另一只稳健的股息增长股票是新纪元能源。它是北美领先的电力和基础设施公司，为数百万客户提供电力。由于公用事业业务相对稳定且一致，因此它是一种理想的股息股票，因为其具有高度的可预测性。</p>
<p>新纪元能源的收益率约为 3.3%，是该列表中收益最高的股票。目前，它每季度向股东支付约 0.57 美元的股息，比五年前的 0.35 美元高出 62%。而且，75% 的派息比率也没有立即担忧股息的安全性。通常，公用事业公司会将高比例的收益支付给股东，因为持续的收入往往是投资它们的关键原因。</p>
<p>在最近结束的季度（截至 6 月 30 日），该公司的运营收入总计 67 亿美元，同比增长 10%。运营收入为 19 亿美元，也比去年同期高出 14%。鉴于其整体稳定性和稳健增长，新纪元能源可以成为长期持有的更佳股息股票之一。</p>

联合健康

新纪元能源

家得宝

<p>在过去五年中，有三只高收益的分红股票其分红提高超过 50%，分别是家得宝、联合健康和新纪元能源。家得宝的收益率为 2.2%，自 2020 年以来分红增长了 53%。尽管近期面临挑战，联合健康的收益率为 2.8%，分红增长了 77%。新纪元能源以 3.3% 的收益率领先，分红增长了 62%。这三家公司都展现出强劲的财务状况和未来分红增长的潜力，使它们成为长期投资者的吸引选项</p>

<p>Dividend income can be extremely valuable for long-term investors as it can help pad your overall returns from a stock. Simply chasing high-yielding stocks, however, isn't necessarily the best or safest idea, as those payouts aren't always sustainable.</p>

</div><h2>1. Home Depot</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>1. 家得宝</h2>
</div><p>Home Depot stock yields about 2.2% today, which is better than the <strong>S&amp;P 500</strong> average of 1.2%. But the big incentive to hanging on to the retail stock is the potential for the dividend to grow over the years. The company has routinely increased its payout and its current quarterly dividend of $2.30 has risen by 53% from the $1.50 the company was paying its shareholders back in 2020.</p>

</div><p>Even with the generous increases, Home Depot still has a modest payout ratio of around 62%, suggesting that there's still room for more increases in the years ahead. And while the retailer has been enduring challenging economic conditions with consumers pulling back on spending, it still projects comparable sales growth of 1% for the current fiscal year (which ends in January).</p>

</div><p>With a strong brand, good financials, and an impressive dividend, Home Depot can make for an ideal stock to buy and hold for the long haul.</p>

</div><h2>2. UnitedHealth Group</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>2. 联合健康</h2>
</div><p>Prior to its struggles this year, UnitedHealth Group wasn't typically known for having a high yield. But with the stock falling more than 35% due to rising medical costs and concerns about its growth, it has been in a downward spiral for much of the year. While news of Warren Buffett investing in the business provided a modest bump, it's still down big.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>在今年遭遇困境之前，联合健康通常并不以高收益著称。但由于医疗成本上升和对其增长的担忧，股票下跌超过 35%，在今年大部分时间里处于下行螺旋中。尽管沃伦·巴菲特投资该公司的消息带来了小幅反弹，但其股价仍大幅下跌。</p>
</div><p>Currently, it yields 2.8%, which is still above average when compared to the S&amp;P 500. But where it really shines is its dividend growth. It pays investors $2.21 per share every quarter, and that's 77% higher than what it was paying back in 2020 -- $1.25.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>目前，其收益率为 2.8%，在与标准普尔 500 比较时仍高于平均水平。但它真正出色的地方在于股息增长。它每季度向投资者支付 2.21 美元的股息，比 2020 年支付的 1.25 美元高出 77%。</p>
</div><p>The poor outlook for the company may be keeping investors away from relying on the stock's dividend, but UnitedHealth's payout ratio is still only 37%; there's plenty of room here for the company to continue paying and increasing its dividend.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>尽管公司前景不佳可能使投资者不愿依赖该股票的股息，但联合健康的派息比率仍仅为 37%；这为公司继续支付和增加股息提供了充足的空间。</p>
</div><p>And for all the worry about UnitedHealth this year, the business is by no means in a dire situation. Through the first six months of the year, its earnings from operations totaled $14.3 billion, which is down 10% year over year. Although that's disappointing, the health insurer remains in a strong financial position and should improve in the future as utilization rates come down. Overall, it's not as risky a stock as it appears to be.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>尽管今年对联合健康的担忧重重，但该公司并不处于危急状况。在今年的前六个月，其运营收入总计为 143 亿美元，同比下降 10%。尽管这令人失望，但这家健康保险公司仍处于强健的财务状况中，随着利用率的下降，未来应会有所改善。总体而言，这并不是一只看起来那么风险的股票。</p>
</div><h2>3. NextEra Energy</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>3. 新纪元能源</h2>
</div><p>Another solid dividend growth stock is NextEra Energy. It's a leading electrical power and infrastructure company in North America. It provides electricity to millions of customers and with the utility business being fairly stable and consistent, it's the type of stock that can be ideal for dividends given the high level of predictability that comes with it.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>另一只稳健的股息增长股票是新纪元能源。它是北美领先的电力和基础设施公司，为数百万客户提供电力。由于公用事业业务相对稳定且一致，因此它是一种理想的股息股票，因为其具有高度的可预测性。</p>
</div><p>At about 3.3%, NextEra is the highest-yielding stock on this list. Today, it's paying shareholders a quarterly dividend of about $0.57 per share, 62% higher than the $0.35 it was paying five years ago. And with a payout ratio of 75%, there are no immediate concerns about the safety of the dividend, either. Generally, utility companies pay a high percentage of earnings to shareholders as the recurring income is often a key reason to invest in them.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>新纪元能源的收益率约为 3.3%，是该列表中收益最高的股票。目前，它每季度向股东支付约 0.57 美元的股息，比五年前的 0.35 美元高出 62%。而且，75% 的派息比率也没有立即担忧股息的安全性。通常，公用事业公司会将高比例的收益支付给股东，因为持续的收入往往是投资它们的关键原因。</p>
</div><p>During its most recent quarter, which ended June 30, the company's operating revenue totaled $6.7 billion and rose by 10% year over year. Operating income of $1.9 billion was also 14% higher than it was in the prior-year period. Given its overall stability and solid growth, NextEra can be one of the better dividend stocks to hang on to for the long haul.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>在最近结束的季度（截至 6 月 30 日），该公司的运营收入总计 67 亿美元，同比增长 10%。运营收入为 19 亿美元，也比去年同期高出 14%。鉴于其整体稳定性和稳健增长，新纪元能源可以成为长期持有的更佳股息股票之一。</p>
