Dear CW8888,
ReplyDeleteUsing a 10% dividend yield and assuming all dividends are reinvested, it will actually take about 7+ years to double the initial investment (using the rule of 72).
This is without considering that the share price may increase over time, or that the dividend yield (as a dollar amount) may increase over time as well.
All in all, should this be a real 'pillow stock strategy', folks should be smiling in their sleep knowing that their $X investment today would grow to $2X in just about 7 years, haha.
Time in the market + good fundamentals = wealth.
Actually, it is very harder to reinvest dividends received at the same yield e.g. 10% in this case so realistically it will take more than 7+ yrs to double the initial investment.
ReplyDeleteSometime, reinvestment will have risks and may also fail. That is the truth in investing and re-investing, nothing is certain.
Hi
ReplyDeleteMe think any stock/bond that gives you 10% yield is not sustainable. i don't think you can find any historical chart of this kind of stock/bond.
Why? Because we all would love it very much. Maybe in the years where inflation were more than 10 %. But i still doubt it can be sustainable?
It may be possible with growth-dividend stocks at the future Big Bear markets :-)
ReplyDeleteJust need to be patient.
ReplyDeleteI dun think such stocks exist in our SGX. 10% dividend yield for 10 years? Absolutely no, as least not in SGX.
