One way to identify dividend growth stocks is to look for dividend increases. Companies that pay rising dividends are likely to be financially healthy, generate consistent cash flow and regular dividend. I am interested in stocks with at least ten consecutive years of increasing annual dividend payments (Dividend Achievers). Here is a list of US companies that increased their dividends this week.

That's a huge increase from FedX DG. I have never owned it since the yield is so low. Tom

Love that IR raise. That stock has been with me for about a decade and I'm not sure why it's not in more DGI portfolios. Solid industrial name that produces great dividend increases plus that ALLE spin off didn't hurt either. It's one of my top performers. Thanks for sharing.
