Procter & Gamble's Dividend Has Survived 26 Recessions. Here's What $10,000 Now Earns in Yearly Dividend Income.

Procter & Gamble maintains its status as a Dividend King with 70 consecutive years of dividend increases, surviving 26 recessions since 1890. A $10,000 investment yields approximately $265-$269 annually at the current 2.6% yield. Despite facing $1.4 billion in higher commodity and energy costs, P&G showed resilience with 4% organic sales growth across all product categories and regions. The company's conservative payout ratio of two-thirds earnings and essential consumer staples business position it well for future recessions.
