ProShares UltraPro Short QQQ ETF (SQQQ)

[gwenstacy]

The ProShares S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats (BATS:NOBL) ETF tracks the performance of the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats index. Dividend aristocrats are businesses that have a track record of increasing their dividend for at least 25 consecutive years, in addition to be Fortune 500 companies.

With the focus on companies that have a track record of increasing their dividend, unitholders of NOBL have seen the dividend increase every year since the inception. I will not be surprised if this trend continues as long as the companies continue their streak of increasing their dividends.

It includes companies such as Abbott Laboratories (NYSE:ABT), which has increased its dividend for 44 straight years, and AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T), which has done the same for 32 consecutive years.
