RE: Dividend Announcement Thread! - RyanCMason - 02-18-2016
Great week for Dividend Growth Investors despite Walmart's low annual increase (1 cent a quarter). Walmart is in a tough spot now as their dividend growth is so small and there are many viable options with better dividend growth with similar yields (JNJ or PEP) or better yields with similar low dividend growth. (T, VZ, SO).
