The DivGro Weekly—12.02.21

60 Consecutive dividend increases

CME announced a dividend increase of 5.9%, providing DivGro with its 60th(!) consecutive correctly predicted dividend increase since inception. This increase came on top of the significant special dividend we received from CME in January.

We also received our quarterly dividends from Texas Instruments, Mastercard and Clorox.

Clorox was a new name in the Fund. We bought Clorox opportunistically late in December, intending to hold. Instead, after rising sharply and having captured its February dividend, we chose to exit for a decent profit and redeployed into better dividend growth prospects.
