Investors and dividend yields

The Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance, 2020
Abstract This paper examines investor preferences for holding stocks with different dividend yields in a low market interest rate environment. Using a unique dataset reflecting the ultimate stock ownership in publicly traded Swedish firms, we examine if different categories of investors have specific preferences for dividends and the size of the ...

Revisiting Dividend Growth Predictability via Dividend Yield

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
One of the main theoretical implications of the present value approach on firm valuation is the hypothesis that dividend yield has a predictive power on future dividend growth. The relevant literature, however, was not able to provide evidence that clearly supports this hypothesis.

A Longer Look at Dividend Yields

The Journal of Business, 1995
Abstract This article brings the research on survivorship together with research on predicting the stock market. A key argument of the article is that studies of long-term prediction can and should take into account the fact that a market has survived. Survival looks like a rebound, ex post. If stock market crises were always followed by

Are Ex-day Dividend Clientele Effects Dead? Dividend Yield verses Dividend Size

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2004
We document new evidence that the ex-dividend day stock price behavior in the U.S. is inconsistent with the tax explanation in several aspects. We find that within a tick multiple, as dividend size increases, dividend yields increase, but the price-drop-to-dividend ratios decrease.

Are ex‐day dividend clientele effects dead? Dividend yield versus dividend size

Journal of Empirical Finance, 2007
Abstract We devise an approach to determine whether market microstructure or taxes influence ex‐dividend behavior. We find that microstructure effects of automated limit order adjustments strongly influence ex‐day prices for dividends less than or equal to a tick.

Dividend Stability, Dividend Yield and Stock Returns: UK Evidence

Journal of Business Finance & Accounting, 2000
This paper establishes an empirical role for two measures of dividend stability (as a proxy for dividend policy) in explaining UK stock returns. There is little systematic empirical evidence concerning the relation between dividend stability, dividend yield and stock returns despite the fact that a variety of theoretical models point to dividend policy

Testing the Predictive Power of Dividend Yields

The Journal of Finance, 1993
ABSTRACTThis paper reexamines the ability of dividend yields to predict long‐horizon stock returns. We use the bootstrap methodology, as well as simulations, to examine the distribution of test statistics under the null hypothesis of no forecasting ability.

Dividend yield and expected returns

Journal of Financial Economics, 1990
Abstract Previous research examining the relation between dividend yield and equity returns documents a U-shaped pattern arising from the positive CAPM-adjusted average excess return of zero-dividend firms. In contrast, this paper reports that zero-dividend firms earn negative average excess returns relative to firms of similar size.

Stock Returns, Dividend Yields, and Taxes

The Journal of Finance, 1998
Using an improved measure of a common stock's annualized dividend yield, we document that risk‐adjusted NYSE stock returns increase in dividend yield during the period from 1963 to 1994. This relation between return and yield is robust to various specifications of multifactor asset pricing models that incorporate the Fama–French factors.

Do Environmental Taxes Yield a Double Dividend?

1995
In the face of growing concern about serious environmental problems, environmental taxes have attracted increasing attention, as taxes can, at least in principle, internalise the adverse external effects associated with pollution. Furthermore, many economists have argued that pollution levies are an efficient instrument for achieving environmental ...
