Any chance they'll pay double in H2 to stay on track?

I would be shocked if they do. DIS appears to be in full cash-conservation mode right now.

I own plenty of this one.  Not exactly the dividend growth I was looking for but I guess I'll have to be thankful it still has a decent yield.

A bigger raise than I was expecting from Ameriprise, as I was thinking they'd go with just a 3% raise to $1.00.

The raise brings the yield to nearly 3.9%, the highest it's been since the '08/'09 recession.

Earnings beat too, could be a nice pop tomorrow.

MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The Board of Directors of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (NYSE: AMP) increased the company’s quarterly cash dividend by 7 percent, or $0.07 per diluted share, to $1.04 per diluted share payable on May 29, 2020 to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 18, 2020.

Anyone have a link to a list of companies that have cut or reduced their dividend? Preferably one that is kept up to date. I have seen a few BIZ news articles lately but there were inaccuracies.

I bought it a few weeks ago at 105, but only a tiny position. And now seeing these news I actually feel regret, I should have bought more...

Up 18.5% right now. Apparently the market liked the report!

Mine is a pretty small position as well, hopefully this is the start of it growing into a full one.
