What this tool returns
Returns the number of consecutive years of dividend increases and of non-decreases (increase or hold). Counts are based on settled annual dividends (split-adjusted, per share) and cross-checked against the progressive dividend years reported in earnings releases, with a flag showing whether they agree. Zero-dividend years stay in the series, so a suspension resets the streak. Targets ordinary stocks; ETFs and REITs follow a calendar-year rule and may disagree. Ratios are 0–1 decimals (0.1 = +10%).
