  "summary": "ExxonMobil has raised its dividend for an impressive 44th consecutive year, but the recent increases have been modest, averaging about 4% per year. The current quarterly payout stands at $1.03 per share, or $4.12 per year, resulting in a dividend yield of approximately 2.5% at the stock's current price of around $163. This long-standing streak of dividend increases has made ExxonMobil a popular choice for investors seeking income, but the recent raises have been smaller compared to the past.",
