Just noticed the ex-dividend dates have already rolled through for some solid dividend payers. BKNG, TFX, and CRH all hit their ex-dividend windows back in early March, with payment dates spread through late March and early April. BKNG was paying out $10.50 per share quarterly, which came to roughly a quarter percent of the stock price at that time. TFX and CRH had smaller payouts at $0.34 and $0.39 respectively, but those still represented meaningful yields on a percentage basis. If you're tracking these three for income, the annualized yields are sitting around 1% to 1.4% depending on which one you're looking at. BKNG comes in at about 1.01%, TFX around 1.11%, and CRH slightly higher at 1.37%. The thing with dividend stocks is they're never totally predictable - you really need to look back at the payment history to get a feel for whether a company actually maintains its dividend or if it bounces around. Looking at the historical charts for these three, you can see the patterns over time and get a better sense of stability. That's honestly the best way to figure out if these current payouts are likely to stick around or if they might change down the road. Worth doing that homework before you build any serious income expectations around them.
