Any dividend hike below the inflation rate is a loss in real terms
A ploy to get people to buy, another pump and dump scheme for the execs to sell their stock continuing the big stock Ponzi scheme that's legal but immoral
And none of them are worth buying as you are locking in losses to inflation and taking risks of losing principal.
