Warren Buffett Is Netting Between a 5% and 28% Yield Annually From These Stocks
It's no secret that Warren Buffett is one of the best investors alive, delivering investors returns of 20% compounded annually since becoming chief executive officer of Berkshire Hathaway in 1965.
Numerous factors can explain Buffett's success, and an important one is his love of dividend stocks. Dividend stocks are a great source of returns in the market and, according to Fidelity, have accounted for 40% of the S&P 500's total returns since 1930. When inflation is high, as it was in the 1940s and 1970s, dividend stocks accounted for as much as 71% of the market's returns.
Dividend-paying companies tend to have strong businesses that generate consistent cash flows, making them stellar long-term investments. Here are three Buffett stocks that net the Oracle of Omaha high dividend yields relative to what Berkshire Hathaway paid for the stock.
