Dividend Champion, Competitor and Challenger Highlights: Week of August 21

PM pictures

Introduction

The Dividend Champions List is a monthly compilation of companies that have consistently increased their annual dividend payouts. However, as this list is only produced once a month, the data it contains can quickly become outdated. Moreover, with more than 700 companies on the list, the amount of data can quickly become overwhelming. In this weekly series, I highlight recent and upcoming dividend-related activity for companies on the Dividend Champions list.

In the data presented below, Yield is annualized forward and Years reflects the up-to-date streak, including dividends declared since the last edition of the Dividend Champions List.
