3 Stocks That Just Declared Dividend Raises
For all of its attractions, the healthcare sector isn't always a hotbed of dividend stocks. Drugs are expensive to develop and sell while big pharmacy chains need lots of real estate and personnel. So costs are often high, which can limit shareholder payouts.

In the very recent past, three prominent names in the healthcare industry have declared dividend raises: Pfizer (NYSE: PFE), Abbott Laboratories (NYSE: ABT), and CVS Health (NYSE: CVS). Let's take a closer look at this increasingly generous trio.
