Dividend stocks have a reputation for being more volatile than other types of equities. It’s crucial to consider payout ratios, dividend yields, long-term revenue growth, volatility, and P/E ratios. A notable example is The Coca-Cola Company. Between 1990 and 2006, dividend-paying stocks beat those with lower payout rates by around 8.2 percent per year. Oppenheimer Funds, for example, projected in 2014 that between 1928 and 2013, the global economy grew by 7%. The same may be said for revenue growth. Stocks with low P/E ratios outperformed the standard 500 Index significantly between 1990 and 2011, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices. Some metrics are consistent and trustworthy indications of a stock’s financial health.
