Commentary

All 66 listed dividend payers raised their regular dividend in November, while none cut it. Financial Services supplied 22 increases, the largest sector total, followed by Energy with 12 and Industrials with 10. Energy nevertheless posted a higher median increase than Financial Services, separating the leaders in magnitude and frequency.

STNG led individual moves with a 66.7% increase, well above the 25.0% increases from FBP and OSW. COSO followed at 20.0%, while SCCO’s 19.6% increase was the largest Basic Materials move shown. Energy also placed PBF, DK and MTDR among the largest increases, while Financial Services added ALLY and V alongside FBP and COSO.

Among the long-growth names, WST paired the longest streak, 33 years, with the group’s largest increase and was the only one also appearing among the largest increases. BRO and ATR each extended a 32-year streak, but their increases were smaller. Sector medians exposed a wide spread: Utilities was lowest at 2.2%, Communication Services was highest at 14.7%, and Basic Materials followed at 14.0%.
