Here is a list of companies that have recently had notable dividend activity.

-
X
United States Ste - $35.97
- -15.06%
- $39.79
With steel demand soaring and prices surging, U.S. Steel (X) last Tuesday announced that its April-June profits more than doubled, on a 60% jump in revenues, for the best quarterly results in its history. That news, coupled with a 20% dividend hike, sent the stock up 14%, to 166. The new quarterly on the common will be 30 cents a share, versus 25 cents. It's payable Sept. 10 to holders of record Aug. 13; the ex-date is Aug. 11. This is the No. 1 domestic integrated producer's sixth boost since January 2005.

KIM
Kimco Realty Cp - $19.78
- -12.36%
- $22.03
Kimco Realty (KIM) is the largest publicly traded owner and operator of neighborhood and community shopping centers in North America. Last Tuesday, Kimco, which trades on the Big Board at around 35, increased its quarterly common payout to 44 cents a share, from 40 cents, for a 4.9% yield. The respective payment, record and ex-dates are Oct. 15, Oct. 3 and Oct. 1. Kimco has enhanced its dividend by a compound annual rate of approximately 9.4% every year since its 1991 initial public offering.

POM
Pepco Holdings In - $18.62
- -6.95%
- $19.66
S&P also calculated how many shares to buy in order to generate monthly income of around $100. For example, if an investor bought 185 shares of power company Pepco (ticker: POM), 75 shares of PNC Financial (PNC), 125 shares of AT&T (T), 125 shares of Oneok (OKE), 75 shares of Integrys (TEG) and 25 shares of Dominion Resources (D), the six-stock portfolio at recent prices would cost $28,925, before brokerage commissions, and provide annual income of $1,200. That would make for a 4.1% yield, which is much higher than the current 2.5% yield on the S&P 500. Worth noting, too, is that all of the 18 stocks have a STARS ranking of four or five. That means that S&P analysts expect them to achieve superior returns over the next 12 months and rate them Strong Buy or Buy.
