Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
We evaluate the investment benefits of dividend-paying stocks and identify three major findings. First, high-dividend payers have the least risk yet return over 1.5% more per year than do nondividend payers. Second, the benefit of targeting dividend payers is conditional on investment style. Surprisingly, the benefit is largest for growth and small-cap stocks, the stocks of companies usually thought to benefit the most from reinvesting their cash flows. Third, long short managers exploiting the value premium should focus on non dividend -paying stocks as non-dividend -paying small-cap value stocks return 1% more per month than do non-dividend-paying small-cap growth stocks.
