Wow, Thirteen Companies Announced Increased Dividends

... including Baxter, by a significant amount. Baxter is not an energy company.

When I first started investing on my own, about 40 years ago, I remember following dividend announcements in the WSJ on a regular basis. About the only financial news I had on a regular basis was that of the print edition of the WSJ. Wow, have times changed.

I missed this one yesterday: Apple increased its dividend from 12 cents to $2.65/share. OK.

Note: first comment -- actually fourteen (14) companies announced dividend/distribution increases.
