It’s interesting looking back and realize I only really began investing about a year and a half ago. I made some pretty boneheaded moves at the time, of course, but eventually came into my own and really found a method to investing that suited my style. Since then I’ve been slowly building up my dividend income, despite my commitment to paying off debts first (I hate debt, always have and always will!) and my need to save for other things like retirement and a house, my brokerage account has continued to grow in small amounts.
With this in mind I thought
I’m always on the lookout for firms that consistently raise dividends or spotting trends of increasing dividends. With that in mind, let’s take a look at some companies that raised their dividend payouts in recent weeks! FactSet Research Systems (FDS) raised it’s quarterly dividend by 50% to 18 cents per share. I’ll be trying to keep track each week of notable firms that are out there raising
Barrick Gold (ABX) raised it’s dividend semi-annual dividend by 33% to 20 cents per share.
PepsiCo (PEP) [Note: I'm a fan of this one] raised its annual dividend by 13% to $1.70 per share.
About Me
My name's Frank and I'm a life long seeker of passive income and dividends. I work in Financial Services and invite you to join me in my search for the holy grail of finance: passive income. My methods tend to be unorthodox but effective. Whether it's through investing or other means, I believe in creating many sources of income to give me the flexibility to live the life I want, when I want it.
