This is about 77% increase from $0.26. The increase in dividend could not help the company in the share market. The news didn\u2019t help the company\u2019s stock go up. However, this may be due to the fact that the dividend increase was anticipated as the company indicated about the possible increase.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to the company, the increase shows that the company is confident about its financials and future cash flow growth. This is the second major dividend increase by National-Oilwell.
