Dividends can be understood as the income on your investments which remain passive most of the time. So, the company which provides the highest dividends is considered safer than others. The dividend yield provided to the investor is the ratio of the dividend paid per share to the investors or the shareholders on the stock’s market price at that time. So, the dividend yields tend to change often according to the change in the market price of the stock. Stocks with a higher yield than the benchmarks, like the Nifty 50 or the Sensex, are considered high-yielding stocks in the market. The increased dividend yield stocks in the market signify that the stick is currently underpriced and has more potential in the future. In case of a slide down in the market, the dividend yield stocks can provide investors with higher yields. The dividend yield will tend to increase when the price of a stock decreases in the market, and similarly, if the cost of the stock keeps rising, the dividend yield will drop gradually.
