Hypothetical hindsight illustration using this plan’s selected holdings and allocation weights. It is not the creator’s actual historical portfolio or a live performance record. Each position’s ending value is its initial allocation × ending adjusted close ÷ purchase-date adjusted close. Distributions are reinvested in the same security; no rebalancing, withdrawals or new contributions. Fractional shares are assumed. Personal taxes and transaction costs are excluded; fund expenses are reflected in market-price performance.
The window ends on the latest verified session shared by all holdings and begins on the first matched trading session on or after its 5-year anniversary. International comparisons require same-date prices and exchange rates. Chart points use dates with prices for every invested holding. Dollar values are rounded for display; totals use unrounded values. Return methodology

Nanalyze Dividend Growth 2026 Q4 Fund
Own businesses that can keep raising the dividend.
A portfolio of 20 dividend-growth businesses, emphasizing durable earnings, global franchises and room to reinvest. Position sizes balance business quality with sector overlap, cyclical risk and the pace of dividend progress.
Prepared Sep 20, 2026 · USD · Distributions reinvestedThe investment case
Why this portfolio
01
Use the published framework
Favor long dividend-growth records, business scale, global revenue and the ability to fund future increases. ADI and QCOM are upcoming-champion exceptions already discussed by Nanalyze; they receive measured allocations.
02
Let fresh evidence affect the weights
Abbott’s 2026 outlook and ADI’s 11% dividend increase support their roles. S&P Global stays at 4% because its 2026 increase was only 1% ahead of the planned Mobility separation. None of these observations guarantees future growth.
03
Build a balanced dividend engine
Spread direct holdings across eight sectors. Smaller positions in cyclical businesses and asset management leave more capital with diversified franchises. These are qualitative allocation judgments, not official or newly invented Q-scores.

- Industrials$230,00023%

| Investment | Weight | Amount to invest | Why this allocation |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8% | $80,000 | Diversified healthcare businesses, an established increase record and the 2026 operating outlook support a core dividend-growth role. | |
| 8% | $80,000 | Recurring payroll and HR demand supports the largest business-services allocation; global scale helps spread customer risk. | |
| 8% | $80,000 | Industrial gases serve many end markets, providing a diversified way to participate in long-term industrial growth. | |
| 7% | $70,000 | Diversified industrial operations and reported 2026 operating progress support a larger weight than more concentrated cyclical names. | |
| 6% | $60,000 | A long dividend-growth record and multiple healthcare businesses balance Abbott within a 14% healthcare allocation. | |
| 6% | $60,000 | Everyday consumer products and global brands provide a steady business base for reinvesting dividends. | |
| 5% | $50,000 | The 2026 dividend increase supports the growth case; a measured weight recognizes semiconductor cyclicality and its shorter increase record. What to watchIndustrial chip demand and dividends growing faster than sustainable cash flow. Research source | |
| 5% | $50,000 | Insurance cash flows diversify the financial allocation away from capital markets and asset management. | |
| 5% | $50,000 | Rail infrastructure adds a distinct business model and geographic exposure to the industrial sleeve. | |
| 5% | $50,000 | Global beverage demand adds a different consumer franchise, with a mid-sized weight to avoid excessive staples concentration. What to watchCurrency, changing consumer demand and payout growth outrunning earnings. Research source | |
| 5% | $50,000 | Adds a utility and power-investment growth driver that differs from consumer and industrial businesses. | |
| 5% | $50,000 | Retail scale and operating investment provide a route to future earnings growth, balanced against a modest starting income yield. What to watchThin retail margins, execution and a valuation that assumes too much growth. Research source | |
| 4% | $40,000 | Licensing and semiconductor exposure provide another dividend-growth engine, kept smaller to control chip-cycle and customer risks. | |
| 4% | $40,000 | A different technology business mix complements semiconductors; low starting yield keeps this a growth-oriented supporting position. | |
| 4% | $40,000 | Paints and coatings add a consumer and construction-linked business alongside industrial gases. | |
| 4% | $40,000 | Data, benchmarks and ratings remain attractive businesses, but the latest 1% increase and planned separation limit the weight. What to watchPost-separation dividend policy, financial-market activity and valuation. Research source | |
| 3% | $30,000 | Equipment and services offer capital-spending exposure, but cyclicality argues for a smaller position than ITW. | |
| 3% | $30,000 | Adds an energy-linked dividend-growth candidate with a deliberately small allocation because cash flows depend on commodity prices. What to watchOil prices, capital spending and maintaining dividend growth across the cycle. Research source | |
| 3% | $30,000 | Specialty coatings and building products diversify the materials allocation at a measured weight. | |
| 2% | $20,000 | Maintains a small asset-management allocation while giving greater weight to less market-dependent dividend businesses. | |

Concentration limits
Keeps the two upcoming-champion exceptions contained.
ADI · QCOMBalances defensive businesses with other sources of dividend growth.
PG · KO · WMTThese are direct-position controls, not a complete look-through exposure calculation. No margin borrowing is assumed at the model level; underlying funds may use leverage.
Maintain the investment case
When to review
- Reinvest dividends toward underweight holdings, provided earnings quality and the dividend-growth case remain intact.
- Review dividend progress by fiscal year. A freeze or cut triggers a thesis review; do not assume a high current yield compensates for stalled dividend growth.
- Check cash-flow coverage, debt, valuation and the latest annual increase before adding. Monitor corporate separations and their effect on the dividend record.
- Review after Q4 in January 2027. Rebalance above 10% or below 1%, and review drift exceeding two percentage points while keeping sector limits in view.
Selective by design
Why some names stay out
BEN · IBM
Slower dividend-growth concerns and business-transition exposure rank behind stronger candidates for this edition.
NVO · NKE · ALB
Healthcare concentration or turnaround/commodity uncertainty argues for allocating this capital to more diversified earnings streams.
AWR · APD · PPG · IMO · TRP
These remain research alternatives; the selected utility, materials and energy holdings already fill their portfolio roles.
Excluded from this model does not mean excluded from the research universe.
