Does the percent yield of a stock change.?

The dividend can go up, down or stay the same. With your shares you base the yield on your purchase price. The market yield will be based on the current price and last dividend.

Companies like to increase dividends (possibly by 10%). So in a bad year they may still icrease dividends using reserves. Usually a dividend is covered by earnings (say 2x or 3x). You should look at dividend cover.

Part 1

you bought 10 shares at 10$ per share so total of $100 the dividend yield , normally declared annually, is 5% or actual dollar amount of $5

year two the value of the stock went up to 200$ and I'll just assume they kept the dividend the same at $5 so now you're getting 5$/200 or the yield has dropped from 5% to 2.5%.

The dividend is paid per share so again if its 5$ per share you'll be getting $500 for the 100 shares you own.

If it dropped to 3% you'll get $300.

Dividends normally are declared annually and are a function of how well the company is doing with cash flow and profit so as they change so does the possibility of a dividend change

Dividends are a dollar amount per share, not a percentage. You will get the same dividend each year no matter what the stock price is. The yield is based on the stock price and expressed as a percentage.

I'm making big money with binary option, I use this software ( http://forexsignal.kyma.info ) My software delivers signals only when the five indicators (bp trend filter, market deviation, price pattern, rel. price impulse, stat. price range) are aligned together and we have an extremely high confidence rate, it must then co-exist with my proven secret strategy before a trade be detected… as a result, we get a guaranteed Highly-Accurate ’80-100%’ Signal.

Part 1

If I bought 10 shares for $100 of ABC company at a 5 percent dividend. Payed out annually.

Year one stock price = 100 percent yeild = $5

Year two stock price = 200 do I get $5 or 10$.

Part 2

How does percent yield change.

Example when the stock of ABC hit 200 would the yield automatically go down to 2.5%?

Part 3/3

If the percent yield changed from 5% to. 3%

And the stock was still wroth 100 dollars in the first year would i get 3 dollars or 5 dollars?

Please help
