Good morning!

There's a surprising amount of dividend news today. We've got a major meat processor raising it's dividend, plus new distributions from both a logistics company and a semiconductor firm.

Let's start with the raise first, even though it's relatively small...

Hormel Foods Corporation ($HRL) Raises Dividend By 0.9%

They say the safest dividend is the one that’s just been raised.

Good news for Hormel Foods Corporation investors because this stock is down over 26% year-to-date and many feared that the firm would not increase its dividend.

Hormel Foods Corporation, owner of many recognizable food brands including Ceratti lunch meats and SPAM, is a Dividend King. The firm has raised its payout every year for over 50 years. And yesterday, Hormel announced its 60th consecutive annual dividend increase — a 0.9% raise.

Hormel Foods Corporation will now pay a $0.2925/share quarterly dividend.

  • Ex-dividend date: 1/12/26

  • Forward starting dividend yield: 5.18%

FedEx Corporation ($FDX) Declares $1.45 Dividend

Did you know that FedEx Corporation handles roughly 19% of all package deliveries in the United States? This is a massive delivery and logistics company that had a major sell-off earlier in the year, only to rebound.

Like Hormel Foods, many investors worried about the FedEx dividend.

But, FedEx actually raised its payout in June. And recently, the firm announced an upcoming distribution that will be paid in early 2026.

FedEx Corporation will pay a $1.45/share quarterly dividend that is in-line with the previous payout.

Analog Devices’ chips are featured in over 25% of new car airbags. And, many CT scanners and X-ray machines also use the firm’s products.
