Weighted dividend growth

How fast a portfolio's dividends have been growing per year, averaged by how much income each holding pays — so a fast-growing payer that brings in little moves it less than a slow one that pays most of your income. Each holding's rate is its five-year growth, or the last year's when it doesn't have that much history; one with no record at all counts as zero, which pulls the figure down rather than guessing.
