Introduction<\/h2>\n

The Dividend Champions list is a monthly compilation of companies which have consistently increased their annual dividend payouts. However, since this list is only produced once per month, the data in it can quickly get out of date. Furthermore, with over 700 companies on the list, the sheer amount of data can quickly become overwhelming. In this weekly series, I highlight recent and upcoming dividend related activity for dividend stocks on the Dividend Champions list.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the data presented below, Yield<\/em> is forward annualized and Years<\/em> reflects the up-to-date streak, including dividends declared since the last edition of the Dividend Champions list.<\/p>\n
