As the calendar prepares to turn, it is time once again to review one of the Dividend Diplomat’s favorite investing topics: dividend increases. Each month we compile a list of Dividend Aristocrats that we anticipate will announce a dividend increase and reward their shareholders by increasing their annual return! Lets see which aristocrats increased theirs in September and those that are expected to have a dividend increase in October!
The best month of the quarter is upon us! September adds a wave of capital to our portfolio through DRIPs or the receipt of cash. Tracking my portfolio is particularly fun in this month since many of the companies I own will pay a dividend this month and one of my stocks is supposed to increase its dividend this month. It seems like every two-three days a stock in my portfolio will have a new update for me to follow. It is great! Let’s take a look which Dividend Aristocrats are set to increase their dividend this month.
