Image source: Getty Images Few FTSE 100 shares have raised their dividend per share annually over a period of decades. But some legendary dividend shares have managed that feat. One of them is Bunzl (LSE: BNZL). The company’s business-to-business model in the dowdy area of foodservice peripherals, such as serviettes and cleaning liquids, means it is far from a household name. But the company has grown its dividend per share annually for well over three decades. It has had a challenging year, though, with weakening performance pushing the share price down by 29% in 12 months. I have taken advantage…

Image source: Getty Images By lunchtime Wednesday (27 August), the Hochschild Mining (LSE:HOC) share price was the biggest faller on the FTSE 250 following the release of the group’s H1 results (the first six months of 2025). The company has interests in two gold/silver mines in Peru and Argentina as well as one gold project in Brazil. And with the price of precious metals soaring this year, it’s not surprising the group’s done very well. A closer look at the numbers Compared to the same period in 2024, the latest half-year results showed a 33% increase in revenue and a…
The global carbon market is undergoing a dramatic reset that could transform both supply and costs over the next 25 years. New projections from BloombergNEF (BNEF) suggest that carbon credit supply may grow 20- to 35-fold by 2050, creating one of the most significant financial mechanisms for funding decarbonization. But the shape of this future market hinges on integrity, governance, and the types of projects that ultimately win buyers’ trust. While the long-term trajectory points upward, the road is being shaped by near-term shifts. From surging issuances to a rapid geographic rebalancing, the market reset is already redefining which sectors…
Image source: Getty Images NIO (NYSE:NIO) stock jumped 10% Tuesday (26 August) after JPMorgan analyst Nick Lai set a new price target of $8 on the Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker, up from $4.80.

Lai predicts a 50% increase in vehicle deliveries in the 2025 full year, with a further 47% to follow in 2026. Early pre-orders for the company’s new Onvo L90 and ES8 sport utility vehicles are strong. Both target…
Image source: Britvic (copyright Evan Doherty) One of the more compelling investment ideas in the London market for me over recent years has been JD Sports (LSE: JD). Yet despite my enthusiasm, the Sports share price has fallen 34% over the past five years and now sits in pennies. Meanwhile, the JD Sports dividend yield is just 1%. That is measly, given the FTSE 100 yield at the moment is 3.4%. But I reckon the dividend may soar in coming years. Here is why. Dividend policy has changed For years, the dividend was small. In 2023, for example, it was…
