How the Dividend Growth Rate Matters More Than Yield

Episode 36 of Dividend Investing with Fexingo: Lucas and Luna unpack why the dividend growth rate is a better predictor of long-term wealth than starting yield. Using Procter and Gamble's 4.5% weekly gain and Johnson and Johnson's 4.1% move as anchors, they explain how a 6% compound annual growth rate can turn a 2.5% yield into a 5.6% yield on cost in a decade. They also contrast high-yield traps like Verizon — down 4.9% over the past five days — with steady growers that protect principal. A practical guide to screening for growth, not just yield, with real numbers from the June 7, 2026 market. #DividendGrowth #DividendInvesting #PG #JNJ #VZ #YieldOnCost #CompoundGrowth #DividendYield #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Finance #IncomeInvesting #ProcterAndGamble #JohnsonAndJohnson #Verizon #DividendTraps #PortfolioStrategy #DividendStocks Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
