I've traveled last week which was
one of the reasons why I haven’t made a clear post on this blog during the past
week. I hope you are not worried about this.
Today I've
compiled the latest dividend growth stocks and share buyback announcements.
Twelve companies have released a share buyback program but only Lockheed Martin
was the company with significant influence.
The military
provider to the U.S. Government plans to buy additional $2 billion in own
shares in the future. That's good news for shareholders and those will also
receive more money by dividends. Lockheed also boosted its dividend payments by
12.78 percent. The new yield will hit the 3.3 percent level.
On the dividend
growth side, only 14 companies or funds/trusts announced to pay higher
dividends. The biggest company was Lockheed Martin followed by the electric
utility stock OGE Energy.
In my view there
were no interesting companies on the attached list. For sure you need a second
check but for my own asset allocation, which excluded highly cyclical stocks
and financials/banks/trusts etc...The research effort was very small for me.
What do you think from the latest
dividend grower and share repurchaser? Do you like them or do you own one of
them? Please let me known by leaving a little comment on this blog. Thank you for reading my blog.
