Phillip Morris International Inc. increased the company’s regular quarterly dividend by 2% to an annualized rate of $4.08 per share.

Forward yield 5.04%

Disappointing but I trust management and next year could be much higher. Steady as she goes.

IMO that the strong US dollar was why the raise was as small as it was.

Wisconsin Energy (NYSE:WEC) declares $0.4575/share quarterly dividend, 95.8% increase from prior dividend of $0.2337.

Forward yield 3.48%

Payable Dec. 1; for shareholders of record Nov. 13; ex-div Nov. 10.

The $0.2337 dividend was a prorated dividend from the Integrys purchase. WEC paid a total of $0.4404 in dividends between the last "normal" quarterly dividend of $0.4225

So, if going by the last normal quarterly payment of $0.4225 ( paid in June 2015 ) this is a dividend increase of 8.3%

If using the last aggregate payment of $0.4404 ( paid in July and September 2015 ) this is an increase of 3.9%

Edit: $0.4575 * 4 = $1.83. StockRover already had their yearly dividend as $1.83 so I'm not sure if this is any sort of raise or not. Usually SR takes a day or two from announcement to update their data.

The WEC dividend is curious. This is what TDA has listed on their calendar for WEC:

It's on my wife's target list but not until a lot of other positions are filled, the P/E comes down to earth and the recent merger settles down in the financials. It's been a while since I looked through their 10-Ks. Too many questions for me right now.

They've certainly done wonders with their earnings but when do they bump up against affordability for their customers? Last I looked their rates weren't that out of line with the rest of their northern U.S. neighbors.
