Dividend Contenders: 26 Increases Expected By The End Of December - Seeking Alpha

Dividend Contenders: 26 Increases Expected By The End Of December - 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.

More Good News Ahead

As you can see by the number of Ex-Dividend Dates in November and December, there's a noticeable pick-up in the number of companies that typically increase their dividends in the last part of the year, which coincides with the "forward look" of about 11 weeks for this article.
