CVS raised by 10%, $2.00 to $2.20: https://seekingalpha.com/news/3778605-cv...s-dividend
"In addition, the retail pharmacy chain operator has also increased its yearly dividend by 10%, from $2.00 – $2.20, effective next dividend payment scheduled on Feb. 01. Meanwhile, the company has also authorized a $10B share repurchase program to offset a potential dilution to share count in 2022."
Big one for me - I've held ever since they froze as I thought their reasoning was sound and I liked the company. They have made continuous progress paying down the debt from the Aetna acquisition and now that they've met their debt:ebitda metric they raised.
I don't 100% trust any company's management but this is a case where they have done precisely what they said they would. I want to own companies like that.

Broadcom (AVGO) up 10% this morning on earnings!
And just like that, it's the #4 position in my portfolio behind LOW, DLR, and AAPL.

A bit of a disappointment from Abbott Labs. Apparently, the analyst expectations for negative 7% EPS growth in 2022 must have some merit.
Abbott Laboratories (NYSE:ABT) declares $0.47/share quarterly dividend, 4.4% increase from prior dividend of $0.45.
Forward yield 1.41%
Payable Feb. 15; for shareholders of record Jan. 14; ex-div Jan. 13.

That is some serious weak sauce. So I hold this dog through 25 years of true pain, they finally win the FCF lotto, and offer up a dying yield trap type raise? I am not at all amused. My wife will start trimming PFE next week. It's most of her ROTH port.
Am I out of line?

I know these railroad stocks are expensive. Often even too expensive. And the yield is often quite low too.
Yet I still sometimes get the urge to just go all in. It's an insanely good business to be in.
