S&P Global (SPGI) is an impending Dividend King. It has paid a dividend annually since 1937 and has increased its dividend annually for at least the last 48 years. Two more consecutive years of dividend increases and SPGI will enter the exclusive Dividend King group of companies.
Some investors, however, may rule it out as a potential investment because of its sub 1% dividend yield.
As investors, we have our respective objectives and goals which influence our investment decision-making process. If dividend income is of primary importance, it is understandable why SPGI may not be an ideal investment.
You can read my SPGI guest post at Dividend Power and my recent Moody's (MCO) post for my take on these two very high quality companies.
Stay safe. Stay focused.
I wish you much success on your journey to financial freedom!
