Top 15 High-Growth Dividend Stocks For September 2025
My Top 15 high-growth dividend stocks for September 2025 are collectively 32% undervalued and offer a 1.43% yield with 21.57% five-year dividend growth. The strategy's five-year annualized return is 11.22%, just shy of my 12% target, but it continues to outperform VIG and SPY year-to-date. Rotation in the list brings in DICK'S Sporting Goods, Elevance Health, Intuit, and Marsh & McLennan, replacing stocks that fell below the 12% expected return threshold.
