Annual-Yield
By Nathan Young | Macroaxis Story |
When looking at a stock or equity, there are several data points to keep in mind, from dividend yield to current ratio. Another data point you should pull into your research is the annual yield, which simply put, is how much money to company made per share, including dividends and other returns on that investment. Many people look at this as a way to gauge the company against others in the industry, but it may not tell the whole story. The company could have had a subpar year, but it could have been due to marketing efforts or restructuring.

Looking at the chart, you can see at a glance how the company is doing, but the annual yield will combine everything and give you a number. It is important to look past the annual yield number and look at what constructed the number. Peeling apart the layers will give you more detailed answers and hopefully explain why the numbers are the way they are. That way you have a firm understanding of the company and know what to keep in mind going forward. Also, use this number in conjunction with your technical analysis, giving you the most well rounded opinion possible.
