The laments of a newbie dividend (mostly growth) investor

I have a WAG position. I bought it on a dip that took the yield a smidgen over 3% (and said what a good boy am I). Dividend growth rates for 1, 3, 5 and 10 year periods are between 21 and 26%.

Due to the rising share price (up 35% from purchase), current yield is down to around 2.3%. I could sell or trim and buy a higher yield (but lower divvy growth rate), or I could simply hold.

But, I remember my delight when I was able to buy a proven grower at that yield. Reckon I lean towards waiting for the next dividend increase announcement.

What would you guys do?
