Dividend Increases: February 1-7, 2020 (Part 2)

Last week, another 32 companies in the Dividend Champions List [CCC list] announced dividend increases, so I decided to split my weekly Dividend Increases article into two parts.

Part 1 covered dividend increases announced by Dividend Champions (stocks with 25 or more consecutive years of higher dividend payments) and Dividend Contenders (10-24 years).

In Part 2, I'm covering the Dividend Challengers (5-9 years), six of which announced double-digit percentage increases!

The largest increase among the Challengers is Exponent (EXPO), a company operating as a science and engineering consulting company with worldwide operations. EXPO announced an impressive increase of 19% and now yields 0.98% at $78.38 per share.

To see details of the increases announced last week, 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.
