Dividend Yield for Stocks in the Nasdaq 100

| Notes about the following table of dividend yields. |
- The "Estimated Dividend" for each
stock below is our best estimate of the per
share amount that will be paid during the
next year, beginning on Dec-04-2008. Most
companies pay dividends on a quarterly frequency;
some pay annually or semi-annually.
The amount, timing, and growth of each dividend
is forecasted from several years of dividend
history, provided, of course, that the company
has an established track record. Otherwise,
the most recent (perceived) dividend policy
is extended.
- Internal values have a precision of at least
twelve decimal places. Displayed values,
however, are rounded to either two or four decimal places.
- Therefore, if you calculate the dividend
yield by dividing the estimated dividend
by the price using the rounded amounts in
the table, you might get slightly different
values. The correct values are those that
are displayed.
- The table can be sorted by clicking on the
column headings of Stock (for an alphabetical
listing) or Dividend Yield (for a descending
value listing).
