What is a dividend yield?
A dividend yield is a financial ratio that shows how much a company pays out in dividends each year relative to its stock price. It is calculated by dividing the annual dividend per share by the stock price per share.
A high dividend yield indicates that a company is returning a significant portion of its profits to shareholders.
