Dividend Increases: February 22-28, 2020 (Part 1)

Another 38 companies in the Dividend Champions List [CCC list] announced dividend increases last week. I publish an article every week to summarize these dividend increases and include a table of ex-dividend dates for the next two weeks.

When so many companies announce dividend increases, I split my summary article into two parts. Part 1 covers the Dividend Champions and Contenders (companies with at least a 10-year streak of higher dividend payments). Part 2 will cover the Challengers (a streak of 5-9 years).

Two of the stocks in my DivGro portfolio announced dividend increases.

The largest increase among the Champions and Contenders comes from Texas Pacific Land Trust (TPL), a company founded in 1888 and headquartered in Dallas, Texas, that holds title to tracts of land in the state of Texas. TPL announced a spectacular increase of 471% and now yields 1.47% at $695.80 per share.

To see details of the increases announced by the Champions and Challengers 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.
