Today McDonald's announced a quarterly dividend increase of from $0.89 to $0.94 per share that’s payable December 15, 2016 to holders of record December 1, 2016. This represents a 5.62% increase to regular quarterly dividends.
McDonald's has raised its dividend each and every year
since paying its first dividend in 1976. With current price $115.20 (today's open), this raise brings their dividend yield to 3.26%.
Since I own 20 shares this will increase my yearly net
dividends by $2.98.
"I'm lovin' it!" Always happy to read about dividend raises from some of my holdings. Thanks for sharing. Seems like yesterday when MCD was in the $80s and everyone wrote them off for dead while CMG, PNRA and others were the 'darlings.'

Hi, maybe it's possible to create some kind of list with news, but I got this to my email, cause I have signed up for email alerts for all companies that I have in my portfolio.
