Warren Buffett's 4 Highest-Yielding Dividend Stocks
Since taking the reins as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A)(NYSE: BRK.B) in 1965, Warren Buffett has put on a moneymaking clinic for Wall Street. He's created over $680 billion in value for shareholders and overseen a 20.1% average annual return for the company's Class A shares (BRK.A). Over 57 years, a 20.1% average annual return works out to a better than 3,600,000% gain!
While there are no shortage of reasons for the Oracle of Omaha's sustained success, his love of dividend stocks could be the most important component. Dividend stocks are almost always profitable and time-tested. What's more, their track record shows that over the long run, they handily outperform stocks that don't pay dividends.
