I own 100 UNH shares at an average cost of $278.51 per share. UNH's contribution to DivGro's projected annual dividend income will increase by $44 to $884.

Since I opened my position in January 2014, the stock has generated a total return of 16%, including $1,968.29 in dividend income. That's a solid annualized rate of return of 9.8%!

UNH became DivGro's 8th Home Run stock in April 2017, when the stock doubled my original capital outlay.
