If only you knew exactly how much the stock market could pay you 😪

Wait a minute. . .

🥁Dividends and their yields may be the answer! 🥁

💡 Remember: A dividend is a payment made by a company to its shareholders

Think of it like a bonus for owning the company’s stock! 💰

Dividend Yield = the annual payment per share divided by the stock price 📝

This is a percentage that tells you how much you’re getting back on your investment via dividends 💰

So, if a stock is worth $100 and it has a dividend yield of 5%, then you’d get $5 🤯

The dividend yield is under the "Key Stats" section of any dividend stock! 🔍

High dividend yield means more cash dividends from your investment 💰

Low dividend yield means less cash dividends from your investment 💰

Dividends are usually paid quarterly or annually, so keep an eye on when you can expect to receive your cash 📅💰

Some companies have a history of consistently increasing their dividends over time, which can be a good signal for long-term investors 📈

It’s important to consider the dividend yield, but it’s not the only factor💡

But, now you know how to find bonus payments on your stocks 🤑
