CAT boosts annualized dividend to $4.80—(from $4.44)—the_28th_consecutive_year for a dividend hike:

At the current share price (~$231), the new payout represents a yield of 2.1%. The dividend would presumably be higher if CAT didn’t have an aggressive share-buyback program (#msg-168886038).

The company says taxes are not the reason for the move, but I don't believe it.
