2 Dividend Stocks Warren Buffet Loves
Given that Warren Buffett's favorite holding period is forever, dividends have played a big role in the performance of Berkshire Hathaway's stock portfolio. The conglomerate is set to rake in over $6 billion in dividend income this year from its myriad holdings.
Two of Buffett's favorite dividend stocks are Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO). Collectively, these two stocks account for around $1.5 billion of Berkshire's annual dividend income. While dividend investors shouldn't blindly copy Buffett, both stocks have a lot going for them.
iPhone giant Apple is, by far, the largest position in Berkshire Hathaway's stock portfolio, accounting for nearly half of its total value. As of March 31, the conglomerate owned about 915 million shares of Apple, worth approximately $158 billion.
