The United States has the Dividend Aristocrats - a group of companies in the S&P 500 that have raised their dividend for 25 years or more. But we don't have an equivalent here in Australia - until now.

We've done the work and created our own group: Australia's Dividend Darlings.

Tune in to hear what criteria we used and which companies made the cut. More importantly, hear how the Dividend Darlings have performed against the overall Australian share market over the past 10 years.

Here's what else we cover in today's episode:

A look at the earning power of YouTube and Instagram - which one would you rather?
Discuss the latest inflation data out of the US - 3.5% up from 3.2% - and what comes next
Answer a question on our favourite sources of information

Resources discussed:

Explainer on the US Dividend Aristocrats
Screen stocks and look up company data with TIKR
Track your investments and backtest strategies with Sharesight
