One of the most successful investment strategies is to buy and hold stocks with track records of dividend growth. This is because a rising dividend is a sign of a very strong business with excellent cash flows and earnings to support increased payouts, and the dividends really add up over time when reinvested.
Dividends are very important. You can get a steady income from your investments and if your trading idea fails, you still have the dividends from the past.
Dividend growth is better because a growing business structure will also give you more and more money over the time. If you got a very good investment, you will earn one day your full investment amount by dividends yearly. That's really great but takes a long time.
With this in mind, let’s take a look at stocks that raised their dividends last week. Below is a full list of all dividend raiser from the past week.
These are the latest dividend growth stocks...

20 Cheapest Large Cap Buyback Opportunities
It’s that time of year again — the time of year when companies ramp-up their stock buyback activity as they realize they’ll have enough cash to fund those efforts, and/or just to make sure they reach their internal buyback goals.
When corporations are profitable and established, they tend to return capital to shareholders. This can be achieved via stock buybacks to shrink the float and to support the stock, or it can be done via one-time dividends or by raising their annualized quarterly dividends. Both are activities I do cover on this blog on a regular basis.
Many investors love the cash flow from dividends. After all, dividends can contribute up to 50% of total returns through time. Other investors prefer for companies to buy back their common stock. But a good alternative is to combine both shareholder friendly activities.
When picking out companies that will be buying back the largest number of shares in 2016, several things have to be considered. First and foremost, a company had to be willing to spend billions of dollars to buy its shares. Such companies also have to have a history of conducting stock buybacks, or they had to have a solid reason why they would be so aggressive in buying back stock this year alone.
As for which stocks are particularly well-positioned to be the beneficiaries of corporate buyback efforts, investors may want to put the following names on their radar. Attached you will find a selection of the 20 cheapest large cap stocks with a buyback announcement during the past 12 month.
