Last week, 30 of the companies I track announced dividend increases. This three-part article provides a summary of these increases and provides several FASTGraph charts of stocks that exhibit impressive earnings growth.I like monitoring dividend increases because I consider companies that regularly increase their dividends to be candidates for further analysis and possible investment.
Part 1 of this article covers dividend increases announced for stocks in the Utilities and Energy sectors. Part 2 and Part 3 will cover dividend increases of stocks in the remaining sectors.
The top increase in Part 1 comes from UGI (UGI), a company that distributes, stores, transports, and markets energy products and related services throughout the United States. UGI announced a spectacular increase of 25% and now yields 2.55% at $50.92 per share.
To see details of 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.
