Dividend Hike Probabilities For Portfolio
One way that the fund is looking to build its wealth is through investing its capital in companies that have a consistent dividend. One of the pluses in doing this is the fact that periodically companies will hike their dividend.
A good example of that is one of KDK Fund's holdings, Realty Income. Since the fund made its original purchase in January of 2014, Realty Income has hiked its dividend twice. This process has added not only more revenue, but when partnered with a dividend reinvestment program, has added more shares to the fund at no additional cost.
When looking at past behavior of the some of the other companies in the portfolio, the fund notices that there is a decent probability that the dividend will be hiked for the Jan-Mar quarter of 2015. AT&T and Sysco have regularly increased its dividend in the Jan-Mar quarter. Ford has increased its dividend in the last two Jan-Mar quarters.
Dividend hikes will allow for larger share purchases during dividend reinvestment, which will raise up the amounts of future dividends. This process done over the long term will ensure that wealth will continue to build at an increasing rate.

Throw Back Thursday Philip Fisher Style
Hey
This quote is pulled from Philip Fisher's book " Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits". It is amazing to hear what he is talking about being that it is 1956, not 1996!
"One potential development, color television, has possibly been overdiscounted by the general public. Another is a direct result of transistor development and printed circuitry. It is a screen-type television with sets that would be little different in size and shape from the larger pictures we now have on our walls.
Yes, he is speaking of flat screen TV's. The company he is talking about is Motorola. Amazing.
Happy Trading and Investing!
