Dividends

Upcoming ex-dividend dates, recent cuts and initiations across 10+ years of US dividend history.
Yield Trap Watch
Dividend stocks flagged by 2 or more of 5 trap signals. Higher counts = more reasons to be cautious, but none guarantees a cut. Use this list as a starting point for deeper research, not a sell signal.
The 5 signals (Benzinga framework):
  • Payout > 100% — paying more than it earns over the trailing 12 months.
  • FCF coverage < 1.0× — free cash flow doesn’t fully cover the dividend.
  • Yield > 2× sector median — yield far above peers often reflects a price collapse, not premium income.
  • Debt-to-equity > 2.0 — leverage limits flexibility if cash flow softens.
  • 6-month return < -25% — sharp drawdown often precedes a cut announcement.
