Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) is considered by many to be one of the best long-term stocks, due to its consistent high performance throughout many decades of both price and dividend growth. This is particularly true for investors, like myself, focused on consistent dividend growth. In fact, Johnson & Johnson is one of the few Dividend Kings, having increased its dividend every year for over 55 years.
