The only thing I find really weak is the dividend increase at Apple. 4% is really puny with 7% inflation.

@Mister_ultra well, it is not a dividend stock but rather a growth stock. I think it's good that they do not increase the dividend too quickly and rather focus on your business and continue to grow!

@MitVerstandzumKapital That's true, although for me Apple is more of a dividend growth stock (comparable to Microsoft, ASML, MasterCard, Thermo Fisher,...) Low dividend yield, but with above-average increases (at least 7-8% p.a.).

But this is probably also due to the personal classification of the stock, for me Apple, like the above-mentioned stocks between dividend (classics like JNJ, Procter,...) and growth (Palo Alto, Shopify,...). In addition, I'm also not too big a fan of share buybacks, a little less of it and for +8% in dividends would be more to my liking.
