Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) stock hasn’t benefited even after it announced it would pursue a series of layoffs, would be cutting 12,000 jobs or 6% of the total workforce.

Back in 2020, Wharton finance professor Jeremy Siegel opined that dividend stocks represent the only protection against inflation. Even with tight monetary policies, inflation has remained stubbornly high. To maintain purchasing power of money, it’s important to remain invested in some of the best dividend stocks. Ahead are three dividend growth stocks to buy at
