How Stocks Are the Best Game in Town For Income
When most people think of the stock market, they think of big price swings
that can make—or lose—a fortune quickly.
While that’s certainly a component to it, smart investors know that price
moves higher, or capital gains, are just part of the investment equation.
In fact, capital gains are only about half the market’s performance in your
portfolio over time.
The other half? Income.
The stock market is a place to buy and sell fractions of businesses. Some are
great, some aren’t. But the successful ones usually like to ensure that their
owners, the shareholders, receive some of the profits along the way.
That usually comes in the form of a cash payment called a dividend. Most
companies that pay them do so quarterly, although some do so as little as
annually, but some do so as often as monthly. There’s a wide variety.
Best of all, studies have shown that, over the course of an investment
lifetime, dividend income from your holdings, reinvested into your portfolio,
can generate as much as half of your portfolio’s total. And, of course, once
you get into retirement and need a steady stream of income, that cash can
be diverted away from reinvesting and into your pocket.
Dividend-paying stocks tend to be steadier and less volatile than smaller,
faster-growing companies... but they’re also likely to stick around, reducing
the risk of a big loss. But combine all those factors together when thinking
about a lifetime of investing, and it’s clear that a focus on dividend-paying
companies alone in your portfolio will lead to better overall investment
results.
