Target and Dividend Growth Portfolio Covestor

board directors: Oops, according to Market Watch. I suppose it would have been embarrassing — and detrimental to Target TGT, -0.50% stock price — if the board had opted not to approve the dividend hike. It published the news of its dividend boost before the board of directors had actually sat down to vote on it. But that rarely a problem for Target. Let dig into the details.
