I love dividends and dividend growth stocks. That’s the main reason why I make a regular screen of the latest stocks with dividend growth on my blog long-term-investments.blogspot.com.
I believe that those companies could have well-running businesses and better performances in the long-run.
Below is a current list of companies that have announced a dividend increase within the recent week. In total, five stocks and funds raised dividends of which two have a dividend growth of more than 10 percent. The average dividend growth amounts to 17 percent.
Below the results is one high-yield stock from the closed-end debt industry. Three of the growth stocks have a current buy or better recommendation.
