Friday, December 11 the Board of Directors of Pfizer Inc. announced a quarterly dividend increase of from $ 0.38 to $ 0.39 per share that’s payable March 5, 2020 to holders of record January 29, 2020. This represents a 2.63% increase over last quarterly dividend.
The transaction to combine Upjohn with Mylan to form Viatris Inc. closed on November 16, 2020. It is expected that Viatris will begin paying a quarterly dividend in the second quarter of 2021, at which time Pfizer’s quarterly dividend will be reduced such that the combined dividend dollar amount received by Pfizer shareholders, based upon the combination of continued Pfizer ownership and approximately 0.124079 shares of Viatris which were granted for each Pfizer share in the spin-off, will equate to Pfizer’s dividend amount in effect immediately prior to the initiation of the Viatris dividend.
“Our commitment to returning capital to shareholders is strong and the dividend increase reflects our continued confidence in the business and in our scientific pipeline,” stated Dr. Albert Bourla, Pfizer Chairman and CEO. “It also reinforces that our focus on creating meaningful value for patients benefits all our stakeholders.”

Time seems to be running fast, the year is coming to an end, a few weeks and Santa are knocking on the door and then the New Year is celebrated. Hope better and safer than this year! Anyway, it's time again to report my dividend income. In November 2020 my portfolio dividend income was as follows:
Yesterday, December 8 the Board of Directors of Enbridge Inc. announced a quarterly dividend increase of from CA$ 0.810 to CA$ 0.835 per share that’s payable March 1, 2020 to holders of record February 12, 2020. This represents a 3.09% increase over last quarterly dividend.
"For the 26th consecutive year, we're pleased to be providing our shareholders with another dividend increase in 2021. This reflects our confidence in our healthy 5-7% DCF per share growth outlook, on average, through 2023 and beyond, the priority we place on returning capital to shareholders, and our strong financial position. We'll continue to ratably grow the dividend up to the level of average annual DCF per share growth, while maintaining our dividend policy payout of 60-70% of distributable cash flow.
With current price CA$ 42.80 (yesterday's close), this raise brings their dividend yield to 7.80%.
