  1. That's a lot of healthy dividend raises. I know V is common among our dividend peers. I bet many are happy with this newest raise. I don't hold any of those names :( Can't own everything.

    1. Hola Keith. Visa is a good buy. I was also thinking of LECO & 1st Source. You could hold them all if you own NOBL :-)

      Thanks for swinging by
