Dividend Increase Effect

Current Stock Position

Archer Daniels Midland is a company that I bought several years ago. The price was good at the time when I started my position. Since then, the share price has pretty much remained above my cost basis since then so unfortunately I have not added any to the position since it was originally initiated.

I would love a good opportunity to add onto this position but the company’s dividend streak as well as their payout ratio seems to keep that share price high. I will continue to remain patient and keep collecting the dividend and reinvesting it back into more shares.

Regardless of how large or small, I love all dividend increases. That is how we end up with More Dividends 😉

As always I look forward to reading all of your comments and questions, until then….. happy investing!
