This week, 8 stocks in my database announced dividend increases (including one stock I own, FAST).
"The safest dividend is the one that's just been raised." Josh Peters, author of The Ultimate Dividend Playbook.
Tracking dividend announcements and auditing the safety profiles of the companies announcing them lets me target high-conviction opportunities and avoid potential traps.
Celebrating increases for the stocks I own is satisfying, but a dividend increase carries a broader signal: it tells me a company has the cash flow and confidence to sustain a higher baseline payout. On the flip side, a dividend cut, or even an unexpected token increase, can signal that the company's outlook may be weakening.
