  1. Return factors

Dividends (stocks) and Coupons (bonds)

This section incorporates factual information on dividend-related metrics such as the history of dividend payments, stability and growth of dividend / coupon payments, dividend pay-out coverage and its long-term sustainability, dividend yields for short and more extended periods, and frequency of dividend / coupon payments. The asset with the highest score (7 of 7) ranks very high relative to its peers and has a long and stable history of dividend / coupon payments, pays them regularly and frequently (e.g., quarterly), the dividends / coupons have been growing over time, earnings and cash flow well cover dividend pay-out, and the dividend yield / coupon rate / current yield has been and is expected to stay very high. The lowest score (1 of 7) means a low relative ranking for dividend metrics and is usually assigned to companies not paying dividends / coupons.
