25% of Warren Buffett's Portfolio Is Invested in These 5 High-Yield Dividend Stocks
Warren Buffett has invested more heavily in high-yield dividend stocks than you might think -- depending on how you define "high yield." There is no set standard to qualify as a high-yield stock.
However, I like to use 2x the yield of the SPDR S 500 ETF Trust (the largest S 500 ETF) as the threshold. The ETF's yield currently stands at 1.43%, which makes any dividend yield of more than 2.86% pass the high-yield test.
Buffett owns quite a few stocks with yields of over 2.86%. In fact, roughly 25% of his Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A) (NYSE: BRK.B) portfolio is invested in these five high-yield dividend stocks.
