It’s one of the most lucrative dividend payers on the market. Dividends per share have increased 110% in the past five years… up 50% in just the past two. And the company has raised its dividend twice in the past year alone. That’s to speak nothing of the massive amounts of stock the company is buying back — $10 billion so far this year, with $14 billion more authorized. And it just announced record revenue and earnings for the third quarter. But I’m betting you haven’t even looked at this stock if you’re a traditional income investor…
That’s because right now, Intel (Nasdaq: INTC) only pays a yield of 3.4%. Most income investors probably see this yield and don’t look twice. But if you’re only looking at companies that pay yields of 6% or more, I think you’re making a big mistake. You see, some of the most reliable and lucrative dividend-paying companies don’t always offer the biggest yields. That’s because more goes into a stock’s total return than just the “headline” yield.
