13 shares start paying dividends above the CDI; see the list and how much R$50 thousand yields

The Selic fell another 0.25 percentage points on Wednesday (8) and reached 10.50% per year, a level that changed the list of shares that pay dividends above the CDI, an important fixed income index.

The CDI, it is worth remembering, is worth between 0.1 and 0.2 percentage points below the Selic. Therefore, after the recent drop in the basic interest rate in the country, it went to 10.30% to 10.40% per year.

Currently, 13 companies have dividend yield (rate of return with dividends) above the index, according to a survey by the InfoMoney with data from Economatica. The study considered shares present in the Ibovespa, Dividend Index (Idiv) and Brazil 100 Index (IBrX).

The material also presents the dividend yield projected share price, an estimate of a stock’s yield only with the payment of dividends. In short, this metric is only valid if the company has a profit equal to or greater than that of the last 12 months and continues with the same dividend distribution policy.

How much does R$50 thousand yield in dividends?

If an investor had allocated R$50,000 in shares, they would have profited between R$5,064.26 and R$16,076.81 from dividends alone in one year. The account takes into account the dividend yield accomplished. The most “dividend” company was Petrobras, which released R$16,076.81 to holders of PETR4 common shares and R$14,376.50 to investors with PETR3 preferred shares.

This metric, however, should not be looked at in isolation when buying shares with earnings in mind, said Fundamenta Investimentos partner Laís Martins Fracasso. “It is necessary to balance the dividend yield with the company’s ability to generate sustainable capital gains, ensuring a more complete approach to maximizing returns in the long term”, he said.

Vicente Guimarães, CEO of VG Research, said that another valid indicator to guide results is the annual dividend growth rate. “Instead of focusing on yield individual share, the focus shifts to year-on-year dividend growth. With a well-organized portfolio, it is possible to have a dividend growth rate of 30% per year.”
