Better safe than sorry.  Big increases in some years, small increases in others, it all averages out.  Seems like dividend increases are smaller this year, in general.  I am curious about WMT's next increase, as they've had very small increases back to back.

They've already announced the third consecutive $0.01 raise, to $0.50 per quarter.
