Stocks—especially dividend stocks—have every reason to shoot higher from here. In fact, they have 7 trillion reasons.

Union Pacific remains a stable, profitable operator with a strong network, despite industry slowdown and macroeconomic pressures. Management targets 4-6% annual revenue growth and EBIT expansion to $12.34B by 2029, supporting an 11% upside to a $251 fair value. The company maintains high margins and operational efficiency, offsetting weak segments with strong grain and container volumes, and disciplined cost control.

Union Pacific's operational turnaround under new leadership has driven record efficiency, improved service, and regained lost business—setting the stage for growth. Despite flat stock performance, core pricing power, rising volumes, and disciplined cost control support a more bullish outlook than last year. Strong cash generation, consistent dividend growth, and robust buybacks highlight UNP's shareholder-friendly capital return strategy and financial discipline.

Dividends are one of the best benefits to being a shareholder, but finding a great dividend stock is no easy task. Does Union Pacific (UNP) have what it takes?

Here we pick three railroad stocks, UNP, CNI and NSC, which have a solid five-year dividend growth history.

Investing in railroads can be a way to benefit from both economic growth and technological innovation. Union Pacific's carload growth was the highest among Class 1 railroads, and the company continued to make efficiency gains in Q1. The railroad operator's adjusted debt-to-EBITDA ratio remains healthy.

Markets are chaotic, headlines rule, and short-term forecasts are pointless. That's why I focus on long-term dividend investing with wide-moat stocks. In this environment, I'm doubling down on two of my favorite dividend stocks, which are built for uncertainty, strong cash flow, and dependable dividends. With long-term conviction, I keep using market weakness to add to these holdings. I'm sticking to this playbook for compounding success.

On CNBC's “Mad Money Lightning Round,” Jim Cramer recommended buying Union Pacific UNP. “I think it's a really good stock to own,” he added.
