  • Hi, My name is Aaron and Im with Dividend Stocks
    Research, today were reviewing our recently
    published article

5
  • Dividend Yield Essentials

6
  • Do you know how much we spend on Christmas lights
    and decorations?
  • 6 billion a year. By comparison, the Pentagon
    spends about 12 billion for an aircraft Carrier
    like the USS Ronald Reagan.

7
  • The numbers are staggering, so huge theyre hard
    to make sense of. I like simpler numbers where
    the arithmetic is easy, and thats one of the
    reasons why Im so fond of dividend stocks.

8
  • The arithmetic behind the yield is about as
    simple as it gets.You divide the amount of the
    dividend by the stock price and youve got it.
    The yield is expressed as a percentage.

9
  • And once you know this number, youve opened up a
    whole new way of finding the best dividend paying
    stocks.
  • Let me give you the 3 dividend yield essentials.

10
  • Then well use them to find the kind of highly
    profitable dividend stock a lot of people chasing
    high yield would overlook.

11
  • Dividend Yield Essential 1

12
  • Chasing high dividend yield, and buying the
    highest dividend stocks, wont always get you the
    best return. Yield constantly changes. Remember,
    the price of the stock is one of the two factors
    that determine the yield.

13
  • When the stock price goes up, the yield goes
    down. And when the stock price goes down, the
    yield goes up. This means that a company in
    trouble, where the stock price is tanking,

14
  • will be paying a higher yield, even if it keeps
    the dividend the same. If a stock trades at 50
    today and the yield is 4, the yield goes to 8
    if the price of the stock falls to 25 and the
    dividend payment stays the same.

15
  • If a stock trades at 50 today and the yield is
    4, the yield goes to 2 if the price of the
    stock goes up to 100, and the dividend payment
    stays the same.

16
  • Heres some more simple arithmetic that can keep
    you focused on the best high yield stocks.

17
  • Dividend Yield Essential 2

18
  • When the dividend payment goes up and the stock
    price stays the same, the dividend yield goes up.
    This is why dividend growth is such a big deal
    for investors.

19
  • Stock yield matters more when you see growth that
    comes from the increase in the dividend, and not
    the decline in the share price. How much dividend
    growth is good?

20
  • It changes all the time. Back when the market
    was going through so much trouble in 2009, there
    wasnt any dividend growth because so many
    companies were cutting dividends.

21
  • These days, annual dividend growth of at least
    10 is good.

22
  • Dividend Yield Essential 3

23
  • There is no exact definition of high yield
    stocks. As a rule of thumb, when you get into a
    yield thats 10 or higher, youre in dangerous
    territory.

24
  • Its usually safer to wait for a low yield to
    grow, which turns it into a high yield for you.
    Its how you put the power of compounding to work
    - so over time so you build a portfolio of the
    best high yielding stocks.

25
  • Want to see how this works, and how profitable it
    can be?

26
  • How A Low Dividend Yield Turns Into A High Yield

27
  • Let me introduce you to a dividend stock that
    pays an embarrassing yield...much less than 1.
    Most dividend investors wouldnt give this ugly
    stock a second look.

28
  • And while Im not suggesting you run out and buy
    it, theres a profitable lesson to learn from
    this virtually unknown company based in Murray
    Hill, NJ (Exit 44).

29
  • The exact yield for this company might be higher
    or lower depending on the day you read this, but
    today, the yield is .51. Yup...just over half a
    percent.

30
  • C.R. Bard BCR is the skinflint of the SP 500
    Dividend Aristocrats, the lineup of Americas
    safest, strongest, and most dependable dividend
    stocks. As I write this, no Aristocrat pays a
    lower dividend than C.R. Bard.

31
  • But heres the thing. Only a handful of
    companies make the cut and get to be Aristocrats.
    These large cap companies have been growing
    their dividend for at least 25 years.

32
  • It sounds easy but its not. And C.R. Bard has
    managed to pull it off for 43 years. For the past
    3 years, the annual growth in the Bard dividend
    has been 5.1.

33
  • These numbers arent terribly exciting. Not at
    first glance. But they are extremely important.
    Lets say you bought Bard 3 years ago. Youve
    got your 5.1 dividend growth. And youve also
    got a stock thats been doing very, very well...

35
  • At the beginning of 2013, this was a 103 stock.
    Today it trades at 187. Thats 26 annual growth
    in the price of the stock, on top of your
    dividend. Low yield doesnt mean you always get
    this kind of stock price growth.

36
  • Theres not a connection. But it does mean that
    like you learned in Dividend Yield Essential 1,
    when the stock price goes up and the dividend
    stays the same, yield is driven down.

37
  • At Bard, the dividend actually grew at 5.1 a
    year. And if you took the money from your
    dividend payments and bought more stock, you
    would have made out even better.

38
  • Its a great example of how dividend reinvestment
    plans really work. So you come out a winner 3
    ways capital appreciation from the increase in
    value of your shares, the dividend growth,

39
  • and the extra stock you add to your portfolio
    when you reinvest the dividends. But if you never
    even think about a stock like C.R. Bard because
    you think the yield is too low, you miss out.

40
  • Now that you know the essentials of yield, you
    can go find your own C.R. Bard. And if youre
    wondering where to start, check out the low yield
    stocks on the lineup of the SP 500 Dividend
    Aristocrats.
