7 Upcoming Dividend Increases Including Two Kings
I highlight companies with strong dividend growth, focusing on those with long streaks and consistent increases as key long-term investments. Dividend Kings like National Fuel Gas (NFG) and Sysco (SYY) extended their 55-year streaks, showcasing reliability and financial strength. Top performers over the past decade include HEI, LII, and SSD, all significantly outperforming the SCHD ETF and warranting deeper analysis.

Acme United Corporation: An Exercise In Patience
Despite recent underperformance versus the S&P 500, I maintain my 'buy' rating on Acme United due to its attractive valuation and ongoing business growth. Revenue and operating income have grown, with strong performance in the US and Europe offsetting weakness in Canada; profitability remains solid post-divestiture. Acme United's domestic manufacturing base and low net debt position it well to weather tariff risks and potentially benefit from industry disruption.
