How dividend income works
Dividends are payments made by companies to shareholders, typically on a quarterly basis.
Dividend yield represents the annual income as a percentage of your investment. Reinvesting dividends can significantly increase long-term returns.
Dividend income is often combined with long-term growth strategies. A compound interest calculator can help estimate how reinvested dividends grow over time.
