J P Morgan Chase and Co (JPM) Dividend Increase Announced on September 18, 2018
J P Morgan Chase and Co (JPM) provided a giant dividend increase in September. My next payment will be a full two dollars more than the previous payment. In the two and a half years since I purchased JPM, the dividend payments that I receive have increased by 93%, which translates to 55% on an annualized basis.
The dividend increases have been accompanied by a similar increase in the value of the shares.

Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ) Dividend Increase Announced on September 6, 2018
The dividend of Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ) has been increased by an amount that is similar to recent increases: about 2%. During the time I have owned VZ, the monetary value of the quarterly dividend has increased by more than a dollar.
While the dividend has increased -- very gradually -- during the past two years, the value of the shares I own has also increased -- and also very gradually.

My average monthly income is up 0.3% in the month of August.
(I think that) this is the first month since this blog began in January 2017 that the nonPension portfolio had no dividend raises for the entire month.
But despite that, the average monthly income in the portfolio is up by 22 cents.
100% of that rise in income comes from dividend reinvestment in nine stocks: AAPL, ABBV, AMP, JPM, OHI,, SBUX, T, VZ, and WRK.
The dividend raises will likely resume in September.
