Bank of America Just Raised Its Dividend 14%. The Buyback Is the Bigger Story.
Yahoo Finance ·
A typical dividend raise from a blue chip stock usually isn’t very major, with most coming in the low single-digit range. That sure wasn’t the case with Bank of America ( BAC +1.26% ) on Friday, as the big lender cranked its quarterly payout 14% higher. That’s actually more or less in line with the dividend raises of other major banks . But what sets this one apart is that the generous bump is paired with another shareholder-pleasing program that’s unusually robust.
