June (and summer) is here! The grayshine and rain that made up a large portion of May’s weather here in the Pacific Northwest has finally given way to blue skies, sunshine, and quite warm temperatures. Too bad it doesn’t last more than three months (if that) here in the great Pacific Northwest. I guess I would have to move much further south to enjoy a more tropical climate.
So how was my dividend income for May 2017? Well, let’s do the numbers and see the result:
AWP $ 45.00
BGY $ 38.00*
CHW $ 21.00*
CIK $ 22.00*
CLM $ 44.43*
DHY $ 38.50
DMF $ 12.30
DSM $ 22.83
EAD $ 9.57
EDF $ 45.00*
EHI $ 30.00
EXG $114.00*
FGB $105.00
NCV $ 45.50
OIA $ 4.30
PFN $ 36.00
RA $ 69.85
VFL $ 15.00
WDR $ 92.00
ZTR $ 33.90
TOTAL $844.18

* Includes Return of Capital

Yeah!! May’s dividend total is a very nice $844.18, which slightly beats April’s record of $836.18. Three of this year’s five months have been $800+, so that is definitely a good trend. If the trend continues, a $900+ month may well happen this year. 😀

I’m also happy to report that there were no dividend cuts this month! Yaaay!!

Overall May was a damn good month. Monthly dividend income reached a new record high and there were no dividend cuts. What’s not to like about this month?
