Tuesday,
October 29th the Board of Directors of Visa Inc. (V) announced
a quarterly dividend increase of from $.52 to $0.59 per share that’s
payable December 2, 2024 to holders of record November 12, 2024. This
represents a 13.5% increase over the last quarterly dividend.
With current price $292.09 (today’s
open), this raise brings their dividend yield to 0.81%.
Visa Inc. is a

Since I own 10 shares of Visa, this
will increase my portfolio’s projected annual net dividend income by
$2.09.
I was expecting an increase of around
10%, so this was a nice positive surprise that I am very happy to
receive.
This is the fifth dividend increase I
received from Visa Inc. since initiating a position April 2020.
During this period, the quarterly dividend has risen very nicely from
$0.30 to $0.59, or 96.7 percent.
This increase raises my Yield on Cost
to 1.45%.
