38 Stocks And ETFs Let Their Dividends Jump Last Week (2024)

Stocks with dividend hikes from last week originallypublished at “long-term-investments.blogspot.com”.Last week, 36 stocks and two ETFs announced to raise dividends. It’s great to seehow the American dividend stock machine works. Compared to the number of stocksfrom the recent weeks, the current results are still thin but solid. The list ofthe weekly dividend grower is very volatile and the number of constituents is between10 and 100. This week, the average growth rates amounts to 33.8, a value twice asmuch as the results from last week.

I love it to see how companies increase their dividendpayments despite the fact that I would buy only a few of them. The biggest nameson the list are Clorox, Coach, Marriott, Macy’s and Potash. Three of the results are High-Yields and 20 havea current buy or better rating.

Hereare my favorite dividend growth stocks:
