Dividend Growth Stocks Going Ex-Div August 21-25th
Introduction Two of my many passions in life are data and dividend growth investing. I like being able to generate insights through data analysis. One recent endeavor I have undertaken is to provide to the SA community a list of all dividend growth companies going ex-dividend next week.
This opportunity will allow folks who own or are interested in owning these stocks in either adding to or starting a position.
This data is provided by analyzing the "U.S. Dividend Champion" spreadsheet compiled by David Fish hosted here. That data is cross-referenced with upcoming dividend information from the Nasdaq.
I want to point out that for companies going ex-dividend on Monday 8/21/2017, you need to already own the stock before then. That means you need to be a shareholder by market close on Friday 8/18/2017. That is the last day to capture the dividend.
The data is sorted by the streak length in descending order.
The List Without further ado, these are the dividend growth companies going ex-dividend the trading week of August 21-25th.
