Terrible.
Really wrestling with this one. I think they are doing some nice initiatives to grow the business, but this is two pathetic increases in a row for a company that yields just 2.3%.
Tempted to move on to greener pastures here...

Little better announcement from Coke!
The Board of Directors of The Coca-Cola Company today approved the Company's 53rd consecutive annual dividend increase, raising the quarterly dividend 8 percent from 30.5 cents to 33 cents per common share. This is equivalent to an annual dividend of $1.32 per share, up from $1.22 per share in 2014. The first quarterly dividend is payable April 1, 2015, to shareowners of record as of March 16, 2015.

Not what I'd like but more than double the current inflation rate. I'm sitting on a YOC* of 6.66% and the stock has doubled since the divestiture so I shouldn't complain.

Much nicer.
Wife will be happy with this. More than I was expecting with the myriad of issues they're facing.* I calculate YOC including reinvested dividends because that's more of my cash invested.

This is Abbvie's second raise this year. They raised from $0.42 to $0.49 with their previous payment.

Thanks Eric. I really should pay more attention to that but since I have no plans to trade it in the foreseeable future, I just throw the divvies in with the pile and move forward. I guess if they only bumped it 1% or so I'd go back and look and see the error of my ways. Right now, I'm reading other annual reports from companies not in my portfolio.
And bad me; I really should go look at your spreadsheet more often.

May want to hold off on that. I've been falling behind in keeping it updated. Too many irons in the fire here!
