Here's How Many Shares of Apple Stock You'd Need for $100 in Yearly Dividends

Apple pays dividends but with a very low yield of 0.3% ($1.08 per share), making it unsuitable for income-focused investors. To generate $100 in annual dividends would require 93 shares costing over $32,000. The company prioritizes stock buybacks ($25.8 billion) over dividend payments ($4 billion), positioning Apple primarily as a growth stock rather than an income investment.
