Billionaire Ken Fisher’s Dividend Stocks

Money manager Ken Fisher runs Fisher Asset Management, a multi-billion dollar fund. Billionaires like Fisher, and other savvy investors, know that dividends are a great way to receive healthy doses of income, especially in today's low interest-rate environment. Four of the Fisher Asset Management funds' top 20 individual stock holdings pay a 3% dividend yield or greater, including HSBC Holdings (NYSE: HBC), Pfizer (NYSE: PFE), General Electric (NYSE: GE), and Procter & Gamble (NYSE: PG).

With a 3% dividend yield, P&G pays shareholders the least of Fisher's top four dividend-paying stocks. However, Procter & Gamble has grown its dividend by more than 9% on average annually during the past five years. Meanwhile, HSBC, Pfizer, and GE have actually shrunk their dividends on average each year in the same period, proving that stocks that pay high dividend yields aren't necessarily those growing their yields, too.
