Two Dividend Giants: A Decade of Golden Eggs and Corporate Contortions

Today, Amex gifts shareholders $0.82 per share each quarter-a 1% yield, modest as a mouse’s whisker but reliable as the moon’s pull on the tides. It doesn’t splash about with annual raises, no, but it tiptoes upward, like a thief in a pinstripe suit. By 2025, Berkshire will pocket $479 million in dividends-nearly 37% of its original wager. One might call it a heist. Or a very polite robbery.
