A Study on the Investment Performance of High Dividend Yield Stocks With Reference To Nifty
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Economics and Finance (IOSR-JEF) - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
Investors invest in stock markets to make profits. Low risk investors always look for ways in investing their capital in stable stocks which pay high dividend and those which do not depreciate over time eroding the capital invested. This very idea makes an investor to move forward in investing in high yield stocks. The term yield describes the amount in cash (in percentage terms) that returns to the owners of a security, in the form of interest or dividends received from the security. Due to volatility in the stock markets investors look for stocks paying higher dividends and dividend yield stocks typically do not witness significant up moves or downfalls, offering some cushion against market volatility. The research aims at proving that all high yield stocks are not stable and total return on portfolio after including the dividends does not appreciate considerably. During the period from 2011 – 2015, majority of the high yield stock prices have fallen down inspite of market being bullish. This shows that there is a huge gap between the index Nifty and the high yield stocks.
