Dividend Contenders: 34 Increases Expected In The Next 11 Weeks [Avista Corp] - Seeking Alpha

Dividend Contenders: 34 Increases Expected In The Next 11 Weeks [Avista Corp] - Seeking Alpha: In compiling the Dividend Champions list (found here) 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. I have modified the Expected Increase series to reflect a more SA-friendly format by separating the Champions (25 or more years of higher dividends), Contenders (10-24 years), and Challengers (5-9 years) into distinct groupings, so please look for the other articles, which I hope will be published about the same time
