54 Stocks And 4 Funds With A Higher Dividend Payment

Stocks with dividend hikes from last week originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. I like it to see dividends grow. It’s a very good sign from the company to give money back to stockholders and share corporate profits.

For the time being, we are in a bullish market and the Federal Reserve is flooding the market with cheap money. These are the main forces for the strong stock market. But a growing dividend is not only a sign of a technical reaction, it’s much more. A dividend growth shows normally that the operating business runs well.
