I track dividend increases across 1,200+ stocks. This week, I'm highlighting 7 dividend increases and two special dividend declarations. ACN stands out as the highest-quality stock this week, with a 7.21 Quality Score, AA- S&P rating, and 37.97% upside to fair value. Dividend increases signal confidence: ACN raised its payout by 4.91%, below its 13.11% 5-year DGR, while CHCO, DAC, and AFG posted double-digit hikes.

In this article series, I summarize dividend announcements of the past week. This week, 9 stocks announced dividend increases, including 3 stocks I own. INTU stands out for its robust safety metrics, 15% dividend hike, low payout ratios, and a forward-looking 16.16% dividend growth rate, though fair value estimates diverge. LRCX delivered the largest increase (26.92%) and boasts the highest Quality Score, but its yield is minimal at 0.44% and valuation appears stretched.
