SFL Corporation decreases dividend again

The Board of directord of SLF Corporation have declared quarterlty cash dividend of $0.15 per share. 

Dividend will be paid around 30th Dec to shareholders on record as of 14th Dec. This is the second dividend cut this year, really disappointing. COVID-19 has impacted their business quite badly, lets hope next year brings some better news

Telus Corporation increases dividend

Telus Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.3112 Canadian per share on the issued and outstanding Common shares payable on January 4, 2021 to holders of record at the close of business on December 11, 2020. This is a 6.8% increase over the previous dividend. 

Dominion Energy cuts dividend by 33%

Dominion Energy declared that its next payout will be $0.63 per share, to be paid on Dec. 20 to investors of record as of Dec. 4.

That represents a reduction of 33% from Dominion's previous dividend of $0.94, which was handed out in mid-September. The dividend cut naturally means a decline in its yield, which at the current share price is 3%

Since I own 39 shares of Dominion Energy, this cut decreases my 12 month forward dividends by $46.80. Really disappointing but this was actually announced months ago already.
