It was a very slow week again – so slow that none of the S&P Dividend Aristocrats announced dividend payments.  However, 3 of the S&P High Yield Dividend Aristocrats (stocks that are members of the S&P 1500 but not the S&P 500, and that have at least 20 years of dividend growth) did announce dividend payouts, including specialty chemical company RPM International.
