I love to kick off the new trading week by taking a peek at companies that have just hiked their dividends. It's not just about the money. A company that eases up on its pocketbook probably has improving fundamentals to back up that generosity.
Readers of the Income Investor newsletter can appreciate that kind of thinking. Let's take a look at four companies that inched their payouts higher over the past week.
Let's start with Apogee
Shore Financial
Compass Diversified Holdings
Finally we have Hospitality Properties Trust
Subscribers to the Income Investor newsletter can appreciate the companies sending more and more money to their investors. The newsletter singles out companies that are committed to growing their distributions with market-thumping results.
