Frequently Asked Questions
A Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) is a company that owns, operates, or finances income-producing real estate. REITs are required to distribute at least 90% of their taxable income to shareholders annually, making them popular among dividend investors.
A Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP) automatically reinvests your cash dividends into additional shares of the same stock. This compounds your returns over time by increasing your share count with each dividend payment.
An Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) is an investment fund traded on stock exchanges. Dividend ETFs specifically track indexes of dividend-paying companies, offering instant diversification and professional management.
The dividend payout ratio is the percentage of earnings a company pays out as dividends. A lower ratio (40-60%) typically indicates sustainable dividends, while a very high ratio might signal potential dividend cuts.
Dividend Aristocrats are S&P 500 companies that have increased their dividend payments for at least 25 consecutive years, demonstrating consistent financial strength and shareholder commitment.
Yield on Cost (YOC) is the dividend yield calculated using your original purchase price rather than the current market price. It helps measure the success of long-term dividend growth investments.
