This was a record that will not repeat itself this year. On the basis of the Corona-crisis stock market crash, many companies need to save your dividends.

Including many that the hold in spite of the Corona-crisis on their dividend payments, or even increase.

have in mind Because the courses are dropped, in the meantime, strongly, in the case of some companies is misleading dividend yields. You calculate by dividing the dividend per share by the purchase price. The dividend yield is then very simple terms, the interest rates they get for their shares.
However, the high rate of return has a catch: On the date of settlement, the stock price shall be reduced by the amount of the dividend. Who pays now a dividend yield of ten percent, and loses on the closing date and ten percent of his class. That would be in normal times, no Problem, but in a crisis on the stock market as it is now, such a loss must be brought once again in. You may collect a high dividend yield, pay the but with the longer-term losses.
nevertheless, the German shares, which currently offer the best returns are in spite of here. Officially, this will be defined at annual General meeting. The exact amount may vary until then, so, yet. You make more of your money!
