Non-Bakken Ramblings -- December 13, 2021

Dividends: I've lost the bubble on this. I can't remember if I've already posted this. PFE, TRN, and UNP have announced an increase in their dividends. Link here.

  • PFE: increased to 40 cents from previous 39 cents. Record date, 1/28/22; pay date 3/4/22.
    • PFE up 5.16%; up $2.73; trading at $55.52
  • TRN: increased to 23 cents from previous 21 cents. Record date 1/14/22; pay date1/31/22.
    • TRN down slightly today
  • UNP: increased to $1.18 from previous $1.07; this is earlier than expected; see below;
    • prepandemic, 88 cents/share; now $1.18/share --> 34% increase over ten quarters (?)
    • record date, 12/17/21; pay date 12/20/21 -- wow -- next Monday.
    • if UNP is a proxy for BNI, Warren Buffett must be happy today

Staggering: I simply find this number staggering. Link sent by reader, thank you.

  • corporate relocations have delivered more than $235 billion in market valuation to north Texas
  • this is corporate relocations; doesn't even begin to include all the new non-relocation activities
  • these are corporate relocations, not necessarily corporate headquarters locations
  • writer noted that DFW already had such big players like Exxon and Texas Instuments
  • added McKesson and Charles Schwab
