I would stay away from Kraft Heinz until the accounting probe is resolved.

Bought more of ABR and ARCC for high dividends.  Both are well rated and pay quarterly per share over 8%+ annual yield.

Sold out position in HCAP, bought more ABR with proceeds.   HCAP has lowered dividend to 8 cents p/s.

Sold ARCC (Ares Capital Inc.).   Bought HTGC (Hercules Capital Inc).

ARCC (took profit).  HTGC (price allowed more shares, higher dividend income)

Not a dividend notice.....Kellogg's up over $5 a share this morning by announcing they beat mediocre earnings expectations that were already expected to be poor.
I do not think selling Keebler at a loss was part of the reason since they just sold it in their new quarter.....

[ModE98]

Added more HTGC for quarterly dividends.  Bought back HCAP for monthly dividends to help pay for Asst Living Rent (covers deficit).

Finally had to pull some dividends out of the various drip programs. We now have about $1,600 per quarter going directly into the checking account to pay our quarterly Federal tax. Up to now, we have pulled it out of our Ira's but now that I will have to pull regular yearly distributions I want to pull smaller total dollars out than what we have been doing up to now to preserve the fund dollars as this just makes for bigger quarterly checks.
We still have more money to pull for federal and then there are the Indiana state tax bill to pay also as well as the personal property tax bill.
People still working with federal with holding have it so good. It mentally hurts to write, or send the electronically quarterly payments.
It seems so much more personal........

Just read where Walgreen's Boots Alliance raised their quarterly dividend to $.4575 a share payable September 12th.

[ModE98]

Added ABR, MFA, NLY and ORC (ORC weak & highy speculative, others OK - REITs. 

Sold HTGC and halved HCAP holding.  Getting out of BDCs in anticipation of weakening economy.

It is a shame this thread has died off.
I will try to update companies increasing their quarterly dividends, but also encourage others to add any stocks they own that increase their dividend payouts.

[ModE98]

Bought some VNT (Vontier Corp.) in upper $33 range, paying divi @.10 quarter.  Although a divi increase is not expected this year, it is expected one will come in 2022.  They are making new aquisitions.
