You don't need school to teach you anything. I learned more about life, science, money, etc playing JRPG on the super nintendo and gameboy advance than I did in school. If you want to learn something: Google/youtube/read a book. :P
Just wanted to say thanks for this video! I recently turned 19 and have been trying to learn as much as I can about trading and the market to secure myself a stable financial future. Videos like this turn a daunting topic into something a beginner can easily comprehend. I'll definitely be checking out the rest of your Trading 101 series.
Your videos make the world of finance so much easier to understand. It's funny how you say "If you want to look smart", that's exactly how most financial advisors are!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks for the kind words. I mean I get it, its "cool to sound smart", the problem is, if you are trying to explain a topic to someone, that usually means you aren't doing a good job of explaining it lol
Hey man I just wanted to say thanks for this video. I got into dividends years ago and I remember I started with this exact video. I put 6 figures in an account and now I'm retired. It took 6 years to make that money and I remember it was this video that opened my mind up. Crazy how time works haha cheers tho!
I'm a newbie at this...I just started listening to you as I drive my kids to school..and I love how you explain everything and make it so simple to understand!
It's absolutely insane to me that you are still responding to comments on a video from seven years ago. I just stumbled across this channel and i think that it is awesome!
Thanks Bro. You've really made it understandable. That's a special gift when you can take complex issues and break them down (not dumb it down) that folks can understand them. Well done.
Can you number each video so we know which one to watch in order, because i start watching and half way through you refer us to watch another video first and it's quite confusing.
Great Video! I'm currently a college student looking to get into investing into stocks and this video explained to me what a Dividend is pretty well. Thank you
You are an amazing teacher. Not like other people who confuse you by trying to sound smart and also not like other TH-camrs who try to make investing sound like get rich quick schemes and that it's easy. Your very genuine and an extremely good teacher. I'm a new sub and I'll stay forever. Keep up the good work and thank you!
He lost all credibility when he used a calculator to multiply by 100. Edit: just to be clear... this is a joke I'm making. the content of the video is solid.
“1.25 divided by 35 isss.. I don’t know what that is -” 🤣 I LOVE the honesty! I’ll never look at pizza the same again! The best, most simple, and funny dividend explanation. Thank you. 🥳
Damn you have to be the best TH-camr in the world, to be so informative and still communicate with subscribers on old videos shows you really are a good person. Nothing but respect
I am just starting to get into stocks again, and all thanks to my high school math teacher. We went to wall street for a field trip and i guess he noticed that i was the only one interested in what he was saying that he talked my ear off about how to invest, and here i am now trying to invest and understand. Thank you for making this whole dividend thing easy to understand.
What if I want to pick up guys not girls? Will that work on them too? lol :) Aside from the U.S. stock exchange what other market would you recommend people invest in or which one is doing very well, if one wants to try foreign market? I am new at this- thank you for the pizza! :)
hahaha, well played! I'm sure you could pick up the type of guy you'd want anyways with that type of talk. It'd be like a good built in filter to keep away the meatheads... I really can't comment on other countries since I only trade/invest in the US markets. With that being said, you can also invest in things such as gold, oil, et. (called "commodities).
Hey man, I'm your new subscriber. Just wanna say thanks for your explanation, it was very clear 😃. Gonna watch the rest of the videos and comment if i have any questions
1. How long do you have to hold a share to get a dividend? What if I bought in the last month of the quarter? 2. How does it pay out exactly? In cash to my account or in the form of more shares?
So if you have 500 shares of a company do you get the dividend price multiplied by 500 so for instance if you had 500 shares and the dividend was $1.25 would you get $625
Wow! Hats off to you Mr. Clay! You are the first human being -- with over 400K subs -- on TH-cam to say on his video that he will reply to comments... AND KEEP HIS WORD!!! Amazing! You have my respect, my good sir!
Soooo let’s say there’s a stock at $1 and i buy 100 shares so i have $100 down on that stock. But the dividend yield is $10. Does that mean at the end of the year i make $1,000 (due to $10 dividends and the amount of my owner ship) plus what ever that stocks current price is at. Let say it went from $1 -> $2??????
ClayTrader another question. After the year is over. Do i still remain at the same dividend yield? Or will it change? Like example i bought in at $10 dividend yield but next year its $8 dividend yield. Do i still get he $10 from when i initially bought in at?
Thank you. For someone who is interested in the Stock Market, I'm glad I've found your channel. At least I have fair understanding to start off with 🙏 btw I am enjoying, and laughing myself out with your off track jokes 😃
Thank you for this great video. I got one question: you mentioned in your previous video that there are two ways of making money in the stock market, either through dividend or growth. I understood how the growth option work. In the formula, the dividend yield is inversely related to the share, so if the share goes down, you should expect a higher yield and vice versa. How is the dividend affected? And which is safer, having dividend or going with the growth option? It is a long question but I hope it makes sense.
I have an entire online video course where I go into detail about all these sorts of things. If interested, you can learn more here claytrader.com/courses/grow-rich/
Im checking this out about 3 years later cause now I'm starting to learn about stocks. Gotta say that you just explained everything very simple and easy and just made me feel stupid for overcomplicating things. Thank you and I wish I can give you a dividend.
Thanks for the video bro! It really cleared a lot of stuff up for me.. I'm 13 and I'm trying to seriously learn about the stock market so I can make some good investments. So imma just binge watch all your videos😁😁 ps. Do you do any courses, if so can you give me a link😊
What happens if nobody wants to buy my stocks? To sell my stock, there must be a buyer, right? But what if there is no buyer? Will the company that sold the share to me buys it off me? What happens if nobody wants to buy a particular company's stocks? Will it be forced to be delisted from the market? Who decides if the stock price should increase by certain amount, for example, from 1.23 to 1.28? How did it arrived at the price of 1.23 and not more? What happens if the company gone bust? Will I be able to get my money back?
Then you lose all your money. That's part of the risk, although the odds that NO ONE wants to buy is very slim assuming you are choosing the right stocks.
really? then can we just invest in all companies that give dividends the day befor and sell those stocks. and buy again the day before the next quarter? is this a good strategy?
Watching this at 12 pm because I couldn’t get a definition for this word for my dumb brain lol now I get it !!! I can sleep good just subscribed thanks !
This was so helpful. I wish I found your channel earlier. As a 14 year old, I so easily understood it. Your teaching is genuinely impressive. I am speechless. Keep it up!
Suppose a company offers you $4 dividend per share annually and they give you the dividend quarterly which would be $1 quarterly per share. What if you want to hold onto the shares for only three month, do you still get $1 dividend when you sell it or you have to hold the shares for a year?
@@claytrader does that mean, I could buy a few shares a day or two days before the given dates for dividend payment and then get dividend? And after that I got the dividend I could resell it after a day or two?
Hey! I just wanted to say thank you! this really cleared up all the confusion I had about dividends. Postscript: I can't believe you are actually replying to everyone's comment!
I have definitely duked it out with some girls at a bar when a guy mentioned dividends. It’s rough out there finding guys who are financially literate, or even just literate in general. Thanks for the video, I learned a lot as a first time investor 😊

Ok so just to be clear...If a company pays dividends at $1.25 ...and they pay out quarterly ...you get a percentage of that $1.25 each quarter that ultimately equals $1.25 by the end of all four quarters??? I'm def not trying to be complicated just trying to understand a little better.
Wait wait that's not true. If they pay a $ amount per quarter you get that dollar amount each quarter. In the example you gave in the video that Jim is referencing the $1.25 is paid each quarter. In a year, you receive $6 if you are a shareholder as of each ex-date.
In this example, is the dividend paid $1.25 four times a year for a total of $5 paid by years end? Or is the $1.25 split into four quarterly payments of 31¢ totaling $1.25 by the end of the year?
Old vid but I still have a question: Do dividend rates change any overtime as the share increase or decrease in value? Do companies open on the stock market advertise "fixed" dividend rates per share, or do they usually offer a percentage of annual company revenue or something like that? Dividends seem to make it easy to tell you how much time it's going to take to earn back the money you originally invested and when the profits start rolling in though.
Ques! So when the company give the dividend, the amount of price per share is the amount when we bought that share or the amount when they give the dividend?? Simple words; amount of price per share is the current price of the share?
Do dividend yield percentages ever change while you still own the stock? When do the yield percentages ever change or is it a flat guaranteed percentage?
You really inspired me in a way, 'you need to used a calculator to calculate simple arithmetic and you are an investment expert' Like what was I afraid of when you don't need to be smart to earn on investment.
Daft question: Can we get very close or go over the 100% yield or the dividend is always just a very small fraction and the price p/share will never be as close or higher?

Glad I found your channel.. I see some other channels using stock market jargon and I have no idea what they're saying whereas you make everything easy to understand. Thanks!
Great video, i work for an employee owned company - I have been here for 3 years and have over 200 Plus shares at $20 a share. We get paid out $2.00 dividend a year. .30/.30/.30/1.10. But last year we got $4.10 at the end of the year - making it a $5 dividend!
Thank you..I was watching Fox business and ppl were asking that stock shares with good dividend...never heard that before..now I know what that means...thank you Soo much!!
You made me laugh and smarter at the same time. thanks man. As a person who is brand new to investing, Your channel has been the most informative so far!
Thanks. Your funny. I love that you got a calculator. Sent this to my son. He was having difficulty understanding it me. So this is helpful and had humor.
So the share price goes up so does the dividend? Also if the share price goes up do you add the dividend to the percent share increase to calculate your total compounding return
what i learned-
Dividends get you girls
Fact.
Girls just want the D. And by D I mean dividend

Where do you get x100?
Samalyaboss martin
He wanted to turn the number into a percentage, hence the x100
Brayden Pecina so x100=%100?
Sama.40shooter martin no, it was a decimal, and if you want to turn a decimal into a percentage, you multiply by 100

So if you have 500 shares of a company do you get the dividend price multiplied by 500 so for instance if you had 500 shares and the dividend was $1.25 would you get $625

Ok so just to be clear...If a company pays dividends at $1.25 ...and they pay out quarterly ...you get a percentage of that $1.25 each quarter that ultimately equals $1.25 by the end of all four quarters??? I'm def not trying to be complicated just trying to understand a little better.
Correct.
Wait wait that's not true. If they pay a $ amount per quarter you get that dollar amount each quarter. In the example you gave in the video that Jim is referencing the $1.25 is paid each quarter. In a year, you receive $6 if you are a shareholder as of each ex-date.
@@dividendsforhope8012 no he said the $1.25 is paid per year, so the $1.25 is divided into 4 which is about 31c per quarter

ClayTrader that's what I wanted to see ! Thanks for the videos
You're welcome.
Keep up the great work....
Thanks
In this example, is the dividend paid $1.25 four times a year for a total of $5 paid by years end? Or is the $1.25 split into four quarterly payments of 31¢ totaling $1.25 by the end of the year?
$1.25 split up
Old vid but I still have a question: Do dividend rates change any overtime as the share increase or decrease in value?
Do companies open on the stock market advertise "fixed" dividend rates per share, or do they usually offer a percentage of annual company revenue or something like that?
Dividends seem to make it easy to tell you how much time it's going to take to earn back the money you originally invested and when the profits start rolling in though.
Companies can change the "amount per share" whenever they want.
You did a great job to make it simple for a bilingual person like me thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Simple explanation which makes it easy to understand. I always look for this type of video to help me with my study. Thank you.
Glad it could help!
Ques! So when the company give the dividend, the amount of price per share is the amount when we bought that share or the amount when they give the dividend?? Simple words; amount of price per share is the current price of the share?
You are paid for the amount of shares you own.
You're great teacher I like the way u fused it with humour.
Thanks for the feedback.
This video was my answer Clay thank you now it clear Dividend Stocks 🙏
Glad it was helpful!
Do dividend yield percentages ever change while you still own the stock? When do the yield percentages ever change or is it a flat guaranteed percentage?
I go over much more details here claytrader.com/courses/grow-rich/
Super clear. Thanks.
And thank you for watching.
You really inspired me in a way, 'you need to used a calculator to calculate simple arithmetic and you are an investment expert' Like what was I afraid of when you don't need to be smart to earn on investment.
I get nervous in front of the camera, makes doing math a bit harder.
So would that 3.57% be paid each time (like each quarter) or does it add up to be 3.57% in one year
Per year.
Daft question: Can we get very close or go over the 100% yield or the dividend is always just a very small fraction and the price p/share will never be as close or higher?
They are going to be modest.
What stocks do you recommend that pay the highest $$

Glad I found your channel.. I see some other channels using stock market jargon and I have no idea what they're saying whereas you make everything easy to understand. Thanks!
Glad it could help!
Great video, i work for an employee owned company - I have been here for 3 years and have over 200 Plus shares at $20 a share. We get paid out $2.00 dividend a year. .30/.30/.30/1.10. But last year we got $4.10 at the end of the year - making it a $5 dividend!
Very nice!
so do you get the dividend amount X your shares?
@@alvannpham correct
ClayTrader does a dividend company grow the same as a company that doesn’t offer dividend?
@@alvannpham that's a case by case basis
Thank you..I was watching Fox business and ppl were asking that stock shares with good dividend...never heard that before..now I know what that means...thank you Soo much!!
Happy to help!
You made me laugh and smarter at the same time. thanks man. As a person who is brand new to investing, Your channel has been the most informative so far!
Thanks for giving my videos a try!
Thanks. Your funny. I love that you got a calculator. Sent this to my son. He was having difficulty understanding it me. So this is helpful and had humor.
Glad it was helpful!
So the share price goes up so does the dividend? Also if the share price goes up do you add the dividend to the percent share increase to calculate your total compounding return
No. The dividend is separate from the share price.
Super helpful! Thanks for sharing-- I feel like I understand Dividends a lot more. I didn't realize it was so simple, lol.
Glad it was helpful!
