Cloud computing really has revolutionized everything. We access the cloud for work, our finances and even to place grocery orders. And every day, it seems like more and more applications are being sent up to the cloud. Arguably, it’s the biggest trend in technology. So, for the firms that are helping navigate us into the “sky,” the trend has meant some very big profits and revenues.
This includes our Best Dividend Stocks List pick in the technology sector.
Our pick was an old-school tech firm until smart management helped make the transition early into the cloud. From enterprise to consumer-focused products, our pick has quickly become one of the go-to names for cloud computing. This has helped drive massive revenue expansion, huge profit margins and even bigger shareholder rewards. Our pick has managed to grow its payout by a staggering 280% over the last decade – all because of the growth in cloud computing.
But our pick isn’t done yet. That’s because it’s now moving its expertise in the cloud into the entertainment sector.
Already a leader in gaming, our pick is now unveiling its plans to develop a huge cloud computing hub for gamers. Dubbed the “Netflix of Gaming,’, our pick’s plans will send billions in recurring revenues into its coffers and feature plenty of exclusive content not available anywhere else. The addition of this gaming cloud could be another major win for our pick and allow it to conquer all aspects of the cloud.
In the end, our pick’s smart and early moves into the hottest trend in technology has and will continue to benefit its shareholders.
