Dividend Yield
Fundamental Analysis
O que significa
The annual dividend payment per share divided by the stock's current price, expressed as a percentage. It shows how much cash return you get from dividends relative to the stock price.
Exemplo
A stock trading at $100 that pays an annual dividend of $4 per share has a dividend yield of 4%. If the stock price drops to $80 while the dividend stays the same, the yield rises to 5%.
Erro comum de iniciantes
Beginners chase high dividend yields without checking if the dividend is sustainable. A sudden jump from 4% to 10% yield usually means the stock price has crashed — the company may cut the dividend soon, leaving you with both capital loss and lower income.
