I monitor dividend increases for stocks on my watch list to identify candidates for further analysis and possible investment. Recently, 20 companies announced dividend increases, including 3 of my DivGro holdings.Part 1 of this article covers dividend increases from stocks in the Consumer Discretionary, Consumer Staples, and Utilities sectors. Part 2 will cover the remaining sectors.
Of the 11 stocks covered in Part 1, three announced double-digit percentage increases and the top increase is 25%! I'm happy to say two of my dividend increases are double-digit increases, too!
Tyson Foods (TSN) is a worldwide food company founded in 1935 and is headquartered in Springdale, Arkansas. The company announced an impressive increase of 25% and now yields 2.55% at $58.89 per share.The runner-up is one of my stocks, Hormel Foods (HRL), a multinational manufacturer and marketer of consumer-branded food and meat products. The company announced a solid increase of 12% and now yields 1.84% at $45.67 per share.
To see details of all these increases, 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'll do my best to respond to each comment as quickly as possible.
