Brookfield Infrastructure Corp's stock rose by 5.08%, reaching a 52-week high, despite the broader market decline with the Nasdaq-100 down 1.08% and the S&P 500 down 0.63%.
The company plans to increase its dividend by 5% to 9% annually, supported by stable cash flows and a robust infrastructure portfolio, which is expected to attract more investor interest. This positive outlook comes amid market weakness, indicating a potential sector rotation as investors seek reliable dividend stocks.
This planned dividend increase reflects Brookfield's commitment to enhancing shareholder value, positioning the company favorably in a challenging market environment.
