Everyone loves owning dividend stocks. They may not drive your investment strategy, but you sure don't mind getting paid just to own a company. The important thing to remember with dividends is that they mean more the longer you hold them, thanks to the most powerful force in the universe: compound interest. So while it's fun to own dividend stocks now, I think it's even more fun to own dividend stocks in the future. Let's look at what might be the five best dividend stocks of 2020.
Air Lease (NYSE: AL )
^SPX data by YCharts
This air lessor is one of my favorite long-term investments. Revenue and net income grew 45% and 48%, respectively, in the first quarter compared with 2012. That allowed the company to pay its first dividend ever in March, but at a yield of just 0.4%, there's plenty to look forward to. More established air leasing companies Aircastle Limited and Fly Leasing each pay a dividend that exceeds 4%. However, they don't match the growth of Air Lease, which is expecting to add 143 aircraft to its stable by 2017 and an additional 180 after that. Does a call get any easier than this? �

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Hawkinvest]
Yingli Green Energy (YGE) is one of the largest solar companies in China, and it recently announced that it expects to recognize an impairment charge of about $361 million and an impairment of goodwill for about $43 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. Yingli plans to announce fourth quarter and full year results for 2011 on February 29, 2012. It makes sense to wait for an update on the financial results from the company before making a significant investment. If the stock remains stable after earnings, it could be a positive sign that it has reached a bottom.
This company has a debt load which concerns some investors, but it is posting smaller losses when compared to other solar companies. When the solar stocks were at a cyclical peak around December 2007, Yingli shares traded for about $38 per share. Now the stock can be bought for less than one-tenth of that price. The impairment charges this company plans to take is a sign that it is making tough choices and possibly positioning it for a future rebound.

Yipes! A Chinese solar stock? Everyone knows that the market for solar cells has collapsed and that China's solar sector is awash in unused capacity and desperate companies barely clinging to life. Exactly --everybody knows. So what does it take to move a stock like Yingli Green Energy (YGE)?
It doesn't take much. Some positive speculation that Yingli and competitor Trina Solar (TSL) are well-financed enough to be among the survivors in the sector would do it. (Yingli can sustain the 2013 cash burn rate for four years, Credit Suisse calculates.) Yingli would also be helped by news of China's State Council encouraging mergers and acquisitions (and maybe even a bankruptcy) in an effort to reduce capacity in the sector -- and banning local government financing of the sort that has kept Suntech Power (STP) and LDK Solar (LDK) in business. There's also a new, high-profile target for increased buying of solar equipment by China's power companies. That last factor has been especially important to Yingli Green Energy, since the company is set to receive orders under the government-funded program.
Shares of Yingli Green Energy have just about doubled from a Nov. 21 low of $1.28 to a Dec. 19 price of $2.44. But there's room to run; the 52-week high is $6.27.
