M We love coming along side women learning to oversee their savings and wealth wisely. We’ve had fun learning ourselves. We’ve talked about terms to know in the stock market, characteristics of different options. Valerie, you are a dividends stock researcher.
V Some stocks reward their investors with dividends, a periodic distribution from the wealth the company has generated in that time period. Some have no dividends, some small, some larger. Typically 4-6% varying by sector, such as energy or consumer staples. While not guaranteed, some have decades of regular dividends.
