General Dynamics Increase

On 5 March, General Dynamics (GD) increased its dividend by 5.63%, from $1.42 to $1.50 per share.
 
The dividend is payable on 9 May to shareholders of record on 11 April. 

GD's contribution to DivGro's projected annual dividend income will increase by $20.80 to $390.
I own 65 GD shares at an average cost of $105.53 per share. Following this increase, my yield on cost is 5.69%. (GD's forward yield is 2.21% at $271.56 per share.) 

Since opening my position in March 2013, the stock has generated a total return of 193%, including $2,452.85 in dividend income. That's a splendid annualized rate of return of 13.7%.

GD became DivGro's 1st Home Run stock in October 2014, when the stock doubled my original capital outlay.
