πŸ“˜ What is Dividend Yield?

Dividend Yield is a financial ratio that shows how much a company pays out in dividends each year relative to its stock price. It's a key indicator for income-focused investors who want to earn regular passive income from their stock investments.

πŸ“ˆ How Does Dividend Yield Work?

The dividend yield is calculated using this formula:

Dividend Yield (%) = (Annual Dividend per Share / Current Stock Price) Γ— 100
    

For example, if a stock is priced at β‚Ή1,000 and pays an annual dividend of β‚Ή50 per share, then:

Dividend Yield = (50 / 1000) Γ— 100 = 5%

πŸ’Έ Why Does Dividend Yield Matter to Investors?

  • Regular Income: Investors looking for consistent returns prefer high-yield stocks.
  • Return on Investment (ROI): Yield shows what percentage of your investment is paid back annually.
  • Risk Comparison: A higher yield may signal either a good income opportunity or a potential risk β€” always consider context.
  • Portfolio Diversification: Balancing growth and income through dividend-yielding stocks is a smart strategy.
