Dividend Increases: February 12-18, 2022

This weekly article series covers dividend changes.

We monitor dividend changes of stocks in Dividend Radar, a weekly automatically generated spreadsheet listing stocks with dividend streaks of five years or more. The Dividend Radar spreadsheet separates stocks into categories three categories: Champions (with increase streaks of 25+ years), Contenders (10-24 years), and Challengers (5-9 years).

In this period, 37 companies in Dividend Radar decided to increase their dividends, including four of the companies I hold stock in. There were no dividend cuts or suspensions announced for Dividend Radar stocks during this period.

As a dividend growth investor, my objective is to identify high-quality dividend growth stocks trading at reasonable valuations. That's a tough task, though, as such stocks often trade at premium valuations. 

I monitor dividend increase announcements and usually select a high-quality stock (according to DVK Quality Snapshots) for consideration. 

To read about these announcements, please read this article at Seeking Alpha.
