Over 3% Cash Dividend Yield for Listed Companies Boosts Long-term Investment in Taiwan Stocks
Taiwan's stock market is entering a golden era of high yields, providing strong support for long-term investors. On May 27, the weighted index opened lower and dropped 200 points to close at 21,336 points, marking a new low for the month. Despite the poor market performance, over 60% of listed companies are reporting cash dividend yields exceeding 3%, highlighting their appeal.
Experts analyze that uncertainties surrounding equal tariffs, the market's sluggish trading during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, and foreign capital's dual strategy have led to persistent market volatility. While foreign investors have been net buyers in the cash market, they are increasingly shifting risk to the futures market.
Statistics show that 915 companies have a cash dividend yield above 3%, accounting for 63.72% of those issuing cash dividends, underscoring the attractiveness of Taiwan stocks in the global capital market.
