Dividend Increase Effect
I am currently holding 15.977 shares of 3M stock in the More Dividends portfolio. With this 0.7% increase it will add an additional $0.64 to my projected annual dividend income and this doesn’t even take into account the compounding factor!
Current Stock Position
3m is a great company that I originally acquired at the beginning of the pandemic. The dividend increases have not been as large as I would have hoped but I think that 3M is a good company that will pay off in the long term.
I look forward to the chance to be able to build onto this position but until then I will just have to sit back and be a patient investor.
Regardless of how large or small, I love all dividend increases. That is how we end up with More Dividends 😉
Do you currently hold any stock in 3M? What do you think of this dividend increase? Just let me know in the comments.
As always I look forward to reading all of your comments and questions, until then….. happy investing!

It was nice to see 3M keep with their raises and add on another year to their streak. The raises have definitely been disappointing the last 3 years. I didn’t expect much from them and am considering closing my position only because the potential lawsuit liabilities could really hamper future dividend growth. 3M has been a great company and I expect them to still do well over time; however, it’s hard for me to handicap just how 3M will navigate these issues.
