💡 Understanding Dividend Yields

Dividend Yield Sweet Spot: Most quality dividend stocks yield between 2-6%. Yields below 2% might be too low for income investors, while yields above 8% could signal problems.

Growth vs Yield: Sometimes a lower yield with higher growth is better than a high yield with no growth. A 3% yielding stock that grows dividends 7%/year will outpace a 5% yielding stock with no growth.

Dividend Aristocrats Advantage: These companies have proven they can grow dividends through economic cycles. They're typically mature, profitable businesses with strong competitive advantages.
