Dividend growth is only as durable as the underlying business environment. Fair price matters, but so do regulatory pressure, inflation, and the creeping politicization of how big brands operate. A consumer staples giant can be steady, yet still vulnerable to supply shocks, litigation, and sudden shifts in consumer trust.
Conservatives tend to focus less on hype and more on capital discipline and public trust. The real “ultimate” stock is the one that rewards patience without depending on central-bank distortions or faddish narratives. Institutional stability is the dividend that makes all others possible.
