8 Dividend Geek Stocks Raise their Dividends

Several dividend growth stocks that I follow raised their dividend payment last week. Most of them were healthy double digit increases. I’m especially pleased with the raises for MMP and APD since I personally own them. If you track the yield on cost and the dividend growth rate on your personal portfolio like I do you will want to update update them to reflect the higher yield on cost and this years dividend growth. I have updated the Dividend Geek Watchlist and Wishlists to reflect these increases.

Here’s the good news:
