1 Dividend Increase: May 28-June 1, 2018

Companies that regularly increase their dividends show confidence in future earnings growth potential. Monitoring dividend increases for stocks on my watch list helps me to identify candidates for further analysis.

Companies that regularly raise their dividend payments show confidence in future earnings growth potential. One way to identify dividend growth stocks for further analysis is to monitor dividend increases.

Recently, one company on my watch list announced a dividend increase. It happens to be a stock I now own, and the dividend increase is an impressive 17%!

To see details of this increase, please read this article at Seeking Alpha. As a bonus, I'm including a summary of ex-dividend dates for the next two weeks. Scan the list of stocks to see if there's a stock you want to pick up before the ex-dividend date so you can grab the next dividend.

I'm saddened by the passing of David Fish, the MVP of Dividend Growth Investors. David's CCC List has been a crucial resource, one he maintained for many years and updated on the first of every month, like clockwork. I will dearly miss the monthly updates, so reliably and generously shared with the DGI community! RIP, David Fish, and our condolences to his family.
