How TYG's dividend compares
Across the 1000 dividend stocks and ETFs DivTrkr tracks, the median yield is 3.57%. TYG's 15.27% is 11.70 percentage points above that median, ranking 154th of 1000 by yield.
Within Financial Services, where we track 157 names, the median yield is 9.52% — putting TYG above its sector. A yield well above the sector norm is worth a second look: it can signal a depressed share price rather than a generous payout.
Its 2-year run of dividend increases ranks 442nd out of the 553 names in our data with an active growth streak.
What the numbers mean
TYG pays out roughly 77% of its earnings as dividends. That is on the higher side — still common for utilities and consumer staples, but it leaves less cushion if earnings dip.
TYG pays monthly, which suits investors who want dividend income to line up with monthly living expenses rather than arriving in quarterly lumps.
Whether these payments are taxed at the lower qualified rate or as ordinary income depends on how long you hold the shares and what kind of company pays them. See the qualified vs. ordinary dividend rules.
