Dividend Stocks Picked by the World's Top Investor
Buffet Leans on Dividend Stocks for Steady Income
The dividend season is imminent for the DAX, with top German companies expected to distribute a significant double-digit billion figure to their shareholders this year. Notably, renowned investor Warren Buffett also anticipates substantial dividend payouts, with several value stocks in his investment vehicle Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio set to distribute substantial sums. Buffalo can expect approximately $4.5 billion in dividends from seven companies alone in 2025.
Buffett's strategy revolves around buying and holding stocks that are fairly or undervalued, benefiting from price increases and collecting dividends as a side-income. In the best-case scenario, the companies also increase their annual payout, allowing for impressive returns with seemingly defensive values.
Buffett's long-term favorite, Coca-Cola, has delivered an average annual total return of around eight percent over the past three years, providing consistent returns with minimal volatility. Other dividend stocks in Buffett's portfolio have outperformed significantly, such as financial services provider Jefferies, which has delivered an average annual total return of 35 percent over the last three years.
