\\n

token reward paid to the shareholders for their investment in a company\\u2019s equity

\\n

\\n

Paid out as cash or additional stock (DRIP - TD ameritrade version of additional stock distribution)

What makes a great dividend stock

\\n
    \\n
  1. Larger, more established companies with more predictable profits are often the best dividend payers
  2. \\n
  3. Regular record of dividend payments
  4. \\n
  5. Growth
  6. \\n
\\n

Dividends don\\u2019t matter if the company is dying. What\\u2019s earned in dividends gets cancelled out by equity loss if the company value is steadily decreasing

\\n

Strategy

\\n
    \\n
  1. List companies that you interact with and know
  2. \\n
  3. Look at 5-10 year chart to see trajectory
  4. \\n
  5. Dividend.com to see consistency of payout history
  6. \\n
  7. Less than 10%. Higher yields don\\u2019t come from established companies
  8. \\n
\\n

Typically it\\u2019s a smaller or newer company coaxing investors into owning equity so they can leverage that extra capital. That is inherently more risky
