Warren Buffettbought BNSF Railway in November 3, 2009 for around USD 44 billion. It soundslike a huge amount of money but the railroad company who travelled 169 millionmiles in 2010 paid warren since his acquisition around $15 billion individends. Not bad for an old-school business.

Below I'vecompiled like each week stocks that have raised dividends during the past week.In addition, you can also find a list of those stocks which have released ashare buyback program.

Receiving money,direct or indirect should help passive investors like me to hedge a minimum amount of return.
