McDonald's Dividend Increase

On 26 September, McDonald's (MCD) increased its quarterly dividend by 5.99%, from $1.67 to $1.77 per share.

The dividend will be paid on 16 December to shareholders of record on 2 December. The ex-dividend date is 2 December. 

MCD's contribution to DivGro's projected annual dividend income will increase by $30 to $531.

I own 75 shares of MCD at an average cost basis of $195.70 per share. Following this increase, my yield on cost is 3.62%. (MCD's forward yield is 2.32% at $305.26 per share).

Since I opened my MCD position in September 2014, the stock has produced total returns of 68%, including $1,717.63 in dividend income. 

MCD became DivGro's 10th Home Run stock in January 2018, when the stock doubled my original capital outlay.
