Hi everyone and welcome back to my site. Today I am going to share with you my latest dividend increase that I received with you. On December 8th during Enbridge’s Investor Day, the company announced a 3% dividend increase, which makes it the 26th consecutive year Enbridge has raised their dividends. Enbridge is my largest holding and I currently hold it in three of my investments accounts so it was great to see them raise the dividend again.
The new dividend of $0.835 per share will take affect with the March 1st, 2021 payment. I currently own 350 shares and here is the breakdown of income growth per account I will receive due to the raise.
RRSP
Currently hold 167 shares in this account and my income will grow per quarter by $4.17 and annually by $16.68.
LIRA
Currently hold 122 shares in this account, my income will grow $3.05 quarterly and $12.20 annually.
TFSA
Currently have 61 shares, my income will grow $1.52 quarterly and $6.08 annually.
