There is no need for temples, no need for complicated philosophies. My brain and my heart are my temples; my philosophy is kindness. Dalai Lama Anyone who doesn't take truth seriously in small matters cannot be trusted in large ones either. Albert Einstein The kingdom of God is within you and all around you. It is not within buildings of wood or stone. Split a piece of wood and you will find me. Look beneath a stone and I am there. Stigmata |

I'll wait and see if the price drops. an action such as this a lot of times turns out to be a signifigant price TOP. We shall see this WALL STREET DARLING never goes down That isn't the yield... that's a dividend. The yield would be the difference between what you paid for the stock and what it was worth a specific time later, usually a year. That's a pretty sweet dividend... especially for those people who bought a few thousand shares of Apple stock back when it was cheap. If you had 10,000 shares of Apple stock, they will pay out an annual dividend of $106,500... and then you still benefit from the increase in stock price over the period of time since you bought it. If you bought their stock in 2006 when it was ~$70 per share and assuming still 10,000 shares... you invested $700,000. Today's current stock price is $601.10. That's a 6 year increase of $531.10 per share or a yield of over 87% in 6 years. So your initial $700,000 investment is now worth $6,011,000. Less the initial investment and assuming you sold today, you'd be looking at capital gains of $5,311,000 and a 2012 dividend of the $106,500 on top of that. I wish I had invested in Apple stock in 2006... I'd be living the high life. |

AH HEM! douche baggio it is the yield derived by dividing the annual dividend payout by current stock price. 10.60 divided by 600(approx aapl price)=1.7666666666666% just under 2% as stated in post and quite frankly quite a shitty yield with many stocks paying a 7-8% yield and even some riskier issues with higher yield. read the definition yourself [link to www.investopedia.com] |

It is the dividend yield, not simply the yield as you stated. The yield is the return on investment. ...either way you don't have to be a fucking dick. |
