Warren Buffett's Highest-Yielding Dividend Stocks
Warren Buffett, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A)(NYSE: BRK.B), is in a class of his own when it comes to investing. Since taking the helm at Berkshire Hathaway in the mid-1960s, he's delivered an average annual return of 20% for holders of its Class A shares. In aggregate, we're talking about a nominal gain of more than 2,800,000%, as well as the creation of more than $500 billion in value for investors.
While there are a number of factors that have made Buffett an investing legend, perhaps the most overlooked reasons he's so successful are dividend stocks. The Oracle of Omaha absolutely loves brand-name, time-tested companies that consistently pay a dividend. This year alone, Berkshire is expected to collect over $4.3 billion in dividend income.
Although more than half of the four dozen stocks held by Berkshire Hathaway pay a dividend, the following three companies are the highest-yielding Buffett stocks.
