53 Dividend Increases Expected By Christmas - Seeking Alpha

53 Dividend Increases Expected By Christmas - Seeking Alpha: In compiling the Dividend Champions list (found here: http://dripinvesting.org/Tools/Tools.asp ) I get to see which companies are nearing the anniversaries of their previous dividend increases. Since most of these firms raise their payout about the same time every year, I can say with some confidence that they are likely to do so again.

For this article, I'm extending the Expected Increase series a tad beyond the usual format, which shows companies expected to increase their dividends up to 10 weeks ahead of their Ex-Dividend Date. Notable increases since the previous update included Year 56 by Northwest Natural Gas (NWN), the 47th year of increases by Clarcor (CLC) and the 38th year by RPM International (RPM).
