there's two ways a company spends money generally
>use all the profits to fuel aggressive growth which makes the company overall more valuable as they gobble up market share from less profitable and less efficient companies
or
>be a machine that mostly spins off profits in the form of dividends to shareholders

either strategy can be attractive to investors but generally attractive to different types of investors.

coca cola is a well known example of a dividend stock. the company sells drinks, people buy the drinks, company profits, company pays dividends to shareholders. of course they also reinvest some of the profits into developing new drinks and increasing market share, but mostly people buy into coca-cola for the dividends.

There are only two ways a stock makes money for its holder.

Either the company realizes a profit and shares the profit with its shareholders as a dividend, or the value of the company grows (greater sales) and the company buys the stock back from the shareholder at a higher price.

That's it. Dividends or Buybacks. Everything else in the market is merely a derivative of these two.

Dividends are a scam, if you want extreme low risk just buy USDC and put it into an exchange that pays out 10% interest

In Robinhood the dividends will get paid into your cash balance, unless you set it to DRIP which means the dividends will buy more shares instead

well, dividends are what you're owed from the earnings that come in. you buy stock, you own part of the company. ownership means entitlement to that share of the earnings pile.
generally, you don't want a dividend from a company that is better than you are with the capital, because you pay a tax on that gain. if it's someone with an obviously bright future, then you want them to retain all their earnings. they will redeploy it in still further growth, more and more earnings. thus the price their stock commands goes up, and your investment appreciates. this is great if the company is, for example, berkshire-hathaway.
however, you do not want to trust managers of lesser operations with your money. you want it back. moreover, at a certain point in wealth stacking, you are simply buying an income stream. when the stability of that income stream is more valuable to you, than appreciation would be given the risk you would be assuming for either, then that's when you begin to switch over.
but ultimately, it's a question of promises. retained earnings are a promise of a bright future. is it coming or not? do you trust them to deliver or not?

Oil companies and real estate companies pay large dividends.
You can earn better yield in crypto usually

the ones that grow their dividend year after year, not simply the ones who pay it and are stable and aren't overpriced.

Steel is going nuts, CLF is beating earnings estimates 6 quarters in a row, possible dividend income like X so boomer money, and the power of dedicated autism that CLF chad brings to our board. I'd buy a thousand shares if I had the means to. When all the Steelgang Frog Mafia is rich we should put CLF poster as an honorary striker in the 4cc.

crypto is just a wealth transfer scheme, cleverly crafted so that a handful of white commie STEM faggots can live off the pajeets who take their jerbs. i regret my involvement in bitcoin even though it paid off my house.
those businesses actually do something for their customers.

Unironically this. It's kinda funny to watch how everything you were taught about investing just becomes invalidated with crypto. Literally nothing goes by the book anymore.

Some companies put up a dividend, which is a portion of their profit, in order to encourage investment. Usually they will do this if they are highly confident of consistent profits, whereas it might not be worth it for a struggling company to have dividends.

Yes. Getting like 1k a month from 100k since july. The APY is variable though. High during bull markets, much lower when market is bearish. It fell to like 3-4% in September. Still better than a savings account and low risk. You can get like 6% from BNB on Binance too if you want to diversify your stablecoins to mitigate risk but decentralized solutions offer higher yields.
I've been telling my normie friends about it, they all say it's a scam, impossible... There's no redeeming them.
