Investors love dividend stocks because they provide dependable income, passive income streams, and an excellent opportunity for solid total return. With interest and appreciation, total return is significantly boosted.
Imagine you purchase a stock at $20 that offers a 3% dividend. If the stock price rises to $22 within a year, your total return is 13%, combining capital gain and dividend.
