dividend change
MCK McKesson Corporation
MCK raised its quarterly dividend 14.6% to $0.94 from $0.82 (next ex-dividend date Sep 01).
Orin's take
The 14.6% dividend increase reinforces the buy thesis by signaling management's confidence in the $5.72B free cash flow stream, but the core undervaluation argument rests on the 16.3% peer discount, not the payout itself.
What would change this read
A close below the 200-day moving average of $831.59 would undermine the technical recovery and suggest the market has fully priced the dividend raise.

Dividends come from the dividends calendar, not a filing — the ex-dividend date is the day the payment stops travelling with the share.
