These 3 Stocks Just Raised Their Dividends
A fresh breeze is blowing in the higher-dividend world, with activity picking up notably in recent weeks. Last week was another good one for income investors, with a clutch of notable stock market mainstays hiking their payouts.
For the second week in a row, it wasn't hard to find three juicy raisers out of that bunch. Read on to find out which stocks these were.
Tobacco giant Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE: PM) is raising its quarterly dividend by just under 3% to $1.07 per share. That's hardly a surprise, as the company has been a consistent dividend payer, and once-per-year raiser, since the 2008 corporate split that created it and peer Altria.
