Disappearing dividends – The hidden problem in our hot share market
The chances are that your share portfolio is going gangbusters. But a paradox of our bull market on the ASX is that the dividend payouts are sliding: Anyone starting today as a share investor is going to find it much harder to get the sort of dividend income that made our market a standout.
What’s happening…and what should you do?
Don Hamson managing director of the Plato Investment group joins wealth editor James Kirby in this episode.
In today’s show, we cover:
* Fading dividends – Why dividend yields are shrinking?
* Forward with franking – dividend imputation is more important than ever
* Could A-REITs be the answer ?
* The failings of ETFs which Jack Bogle may not have mentioned
