Investors often find that companies with a history of increasing dividends perform better than those without. When a company’s management announces a dividend increase, it typically indicates strong business performance and a dedication to rewarding shareholders. I watch companies with a proven record of growing their dividends, providing you with the latest updates on upcoming increases. The following lists offer valuable insights into stocks raising their dividends in the coming week, especially relevant in today’s inflationary climate.<\/span><\/p>\n

This list is a trimmed-down version, only covering dividend increases. A full upcoming dividend calendar is always available here.<\/p>\n

How I Created The Lists<\/h2>\n

I created the information below by combining the “U.S. Dividend Champions” spreadsheet hosted here with upcoming dividend information from NASDAQ. This meshes metrics about companies with dividend growth history with upcoming dividend payments. These companies all have a minimum five-year dividend growth history.<\/span><\/p>\n

Companies are required to have higher total dividends paid out each year. Therefore, a company may not raise its dividend each calendar year, but the total annual dividend can still increase.<\/p>\n

What Is The Ex-Dividend Date?<\/h2>\n

The ex-dividend date marks the eligibility cut-off point for the upcoming dividend or distribution. To qualify, you must have purchased shares by the close of the preceding business day. For example, if the ex-dividend date falls on a Tuesday, you must have bought (or already owned) the shares by the market close on Monday. Note that if the ex-dividend date is on a Monday (or a Tuesday if Monday is a holiday), you must have acquired the shares by the prior Friday.<\/p>\n

Dividend Streak Categories<\/h2>\n

Here are the definitions of the streak categories, as I’ll use them throughout the piece.<\/p>\n
