All told, the company has more than 20 global brands bringing in at least $1 billion in annual sales.\nCoke's global brand awareness is tough to beat, as well. It's one of the most recognized brands in the world and has historically had little issue crossing generational gaps to reach consumers. With everything from holiday tie-ins to social media marketing at its disposal, Coke is as steady as they come in the profit department. Perhaps that's why it's raised its base annual payout for 59 consecutive years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":190,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":119967401,"gmtCreate":1622514208303,"gmtModify":1704185415838,"author":{"id":"3570851798117286","authorId":"3570851798117286","name":"nick14134","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570851798117286","authorIdStr":"3570851798117286"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tell me your opinion about this news...","listText":"Tell me your opinion about this news...","text":"Tell me your opinion about this news...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/119967401","repostId":"2139648773","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2139648773","pubTimestamp":1622432618,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2139648773?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-31 11:43","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"5 Tech Stocks To Watch In June 2021","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2139648773","media":"Nasdaq","summary":"Four Benjamins will get you strong dividends and solid growth with these stocks.","content":"<p>Could These Top Tech Stocks Be Worth Investing In?</p><p>For investors looking for the most active stocks today,tech stockscould be in their sights.

In return for handing over $10 billion, Buffett's company was granted 100,000 preferred shares of Occidental Petroleum stock, each with a value of $100,000. Most importantly, these preferred shares yield a cool 8% annually. Although&nbsp;it remains Occidental's prerogative&nbsp;whether this dividend is paid in cash or with issued shares of Occidental Petroleum stock, Buffett and his team have the option of collecting this payout for at least a decade.</p>\n<p>It should be noted that this deal also carries warrants to purchase up to 80 million shares of Occidental Petroleum stock at $62.50 per share. Although Occidental's share price is well below this mark at the moment, a sustainable rebound in oil prices and a&nbsp;successful deleveraging of its balance sheet&nbsp;might make these warrants worthwhile years down the road.</p>\n<p>Despite Buffett and his team selling their common stock holdings in Occidental Petroleum, it's pretty evident they have no desire to part ways with this inflation-topping return of 8% each year from the preferred shares.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/444424b2704605c7e9e9c80e1827f6a7\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1324\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: APPLE.</span></p>\n<p><b>Apple: $798,652,590 in annual dividend income</b></p>\n<p>Berkshire Hathaway's so-called \"third business\" is another source of big-time dividend income. Innovation kingpin&nbsp;<b>Apple</b>(NASDAQ:AAPL), the&nbsp;largest holding by far in Buffett's portfolio, is netting Berkshire almost $799 million annually.</p>\n<p>Apple's success is a reflection of consumers' incredible loyalty to the company, its dominance in certain categories, and its innovation. For instance, it's the most dominant provider of smartphones in the United States. According to Counterpoint Research, iPhone sales have accounted for between 53% and 65% of all U.S. smartphone share over the past three quarters. That's more than double its next closest competitor,<b>Samsung</b>. Not surprisingly, customer lines often wrap around Apple's stores when new products are launched.</p>\n<p>However,the future for Apple lies with its services and subscriptions. CEO Tim Cook is overseeing a long-term transition that'll emphasize these higher-margin platforms. Ultimately, services should reduce the revenue lumpiness associated with product cycles and improve long-term operating margins.</p>\n<p>What often gets overlooked with Apple is what a capital return superstar it's been. Since reintroducing a quarterly dividend in the summer of 2012, Apple has increased its payout by 132%. What's more, Apple spent in the neighborhood of $380 billion repurchasing 10.6 billion shares of its own common stock since commencing its share repurchase program in 2013. In other words, Apple's shareholders are getting rewarded in a multitude of ways.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f64dcdff17a24b8a4e277db734557537\" tg-width=\"2000\" tg-height=\"1334\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>IMAGE SOURCE: COCA-COLA.</span></p>\n<p><b>Coca-Cola: $672,000,000 in annual dividend income</b></p>\n<p>The fourth and final Buffett stock that's contributing a boatload of dividend income each year is beverage company&nbsp;<b>Coca-Cola</b>(NYSE:KO). Coke is&nbsp;Buffett's longest-tenured holding, at 33 years.</p>\n<p>Coca-Cola's consistent and growing profitability is a function of a couple of factors. First, it's working with incredible geographic diversity. With the exception of North Korea and Cuba, Coke sells its products in every other country around the world. This means a recession in a few countries won't necessarily hurt its profit potential.</p>\n<p>To build on this point, Coca-Cola also possesses a 20% share of the cold-beverage market in developed markets, along with a 10% share of cold beverages sold in emerging markets. This position allows it to generate plenty of predictable cash flow from developed markets while leaning on the faster growth potential of developing markets. All told, the company has more than 20 global brands bringing in at least $1 billion in annual sales.</p>\n<p>Coke's global brand awareness is tough to beat, as well. It's&nbsp;one of the most recognized brands in the world&nbsp;and has historically had little issue crossing generational gaps to reach consumers. With everything from holiday tie-ins to social media marketing at its disposal, Coke is as steady as they come in the profit department. Perhaps that's why it's raised its base annual payout for 59 consecutive years.</p>\n<p></p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>These 4 Stocks Are Netting Warren Buffett a Combined $3.1 Billion in Annual Dividend Income</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nThese 4 Stocks Are Netting Warren Buffett a Combined $3.1 Billion in Annual Dividend Income\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-09-15 19:02 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/15/4-stocks-warren-buffett-3-billion-dividend-income/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Key Points\n\nDividend stocks have played a key role in the Oracle of Omaha's long-term success.\nCollectively, these four holdings will pay out a little over $3.1 billion in dividend income to Buffett's...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/15/4-stocks-warren-buffett-3-billion-dividend-income/\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"AAPL":"苹果","BRK.A":"伯克希尔","BRK.B":"伯克希尔B","OXY":"西方石油","BAC":"美国银行","KO":"可口可乐"},"source_url":"https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/15/4-stocks-warren-buffett-3-billion-dividend-income/","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1118481158","content_text":"Key Points\n\nDividend stocks have played a key role in the Oracle of Omaha's long-term success.\nCollectively, these four holdings will pay out a little over $3.1 billion in dividend income to Buffett's company over the next year.\n\n\nFew if any investors have been as successful over the long run as Berkshire Hathaway's (NYSE:BRK.A)(NYSE:BRK.B)Warren Buffett.

With more people than ever banking online or through mobile apps, BofA has been able to consolidate some of its branches and improve its operating performance.\nIMAGE SOURCE: GETTY IMAGES.\nOccidental Petroleum (preferred shares): $800,000,000 in annual dividend income\nThough you won't see it listed in Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio, Buffett's company owns $10 billion worth of preferred stock from oil and gas company Occidental Petroleum(NYSE:OXY).\nBack in 2019, Berkshire Hathaway provided $10 billion in financing to allow Occidental to acquire Anadarko Petroleum, which was also being courted by integrated oil and gas giant Chevron. In return for handing over $10 billion, Buffett's company was granted 100,000 preferred shares of Occidental Petroleum stock, each with a value of $100,000. Most importantly, these preferred shares yield a cool 8% annually. Although it remains Occidental's prerogative whether this dividend is paid in cash or with issued shares of Occidental Petroleum stock, Buffett and his team have the option of collecting this payout for at least a decade.\nIt should be noted that this deal also carries warrants to purchase up to 80 million shares of Occidental Petroleum stock at $62.50 per share. Although Occidental's share price is well below this mark at the moment, a sustainable rebound in oil prices and a successful deleveraging of its balance sheet might make these warrants worthwhile years down the road.\nDespite Buffett and his team selling their common stock holdings in Occidental Petroleum, it's pretty evident they have no desire to part ways with this inflation-topping return of 8% each year from the preferred shares.\nIMAGE SOURCE: APPLE.\nApple: $798,652,590 in annual dividend income\nBerkshire Hathaway's so-called \"third business\" is another source of big-time dividend income. Innovation kingpin Apple(NASDAQ:AAPL), the largest holding by far in Buffett's portfolio, is netting Berkshire almost $799 million annually.\nApple's success is a reflection of consumers' incredible loyalty to the company, its dominance in certain categories, and its innovation. For instance, it's the most dominant provider of smartphones in the United States. According to Counterpoint Research, iPhone sales have accounted for between 53% and 65% of all U.S. smartphone share over the past three quarters. That's more than double its next closest competitor,Samsung. Not surprisingly, customer lines often wrap around Apple's stores when new products are launched.\nHowever,the future for Apple lies with its services and subscriptions. CEO Tim Cook is overseeing a long-term transition that'll emphasize these higher-margin platforms. Ultimately, services should reduce the revenue lumpiness associated with product cycles and improve long-term operating margins.\nWhat often gets overlooked with Apple is what a capital return superstar it's been. Since reintroducing a quarterly dividend in the summer of 2012, Apple has increased its payout by 132%. What's more, Apple spent in the neighborhood of $380 billion repurchasing 10.6 billion shares of its own common stock since commencing its share repurchase program in 2013. In other words, Apple's shareholders are getting rewarded in a multitude of ways.\nIMAGE SOURCE: COCA-COLA.\nCoca-Cola: $672,000,000 in annual dividend income\nThe fourth and final Buffett stock that's contributing a boatload of dividend income each year is beverage company Coca-Cola(NYSE:KO). Coke is Buffett's longest-tenured holding, at 33 years.\nCoca-Cola's consistent and growing profitability is a function of a couple of factors. First, it's working with incredible geographic diversity. With the exception of North Korea and Cuba, Coke sells its products in every other country around the world. This means a recession in a few countries won't necessarily hurt its profit potential.\nTo build on this point, Coca-Cola also possesses a 20% share of the cold-beverage market in developed markets, along with a 10% share of cold beverages sold in emerging markets. This position allows it to generate plenty of predictable cash flow from developed markets while leaning on the faster growth potential of developing markets. All told, the company has more than 20 global brands bringing in at least $1 billion in annual sales.\nCoke's global brand awareness is tough to beat, as well. It's one of the most recognized brands in the world and has historically had little issue crossing generational gaps to reach consumers. With everything from holiday tie-ins to social media marketing at its disposal, Coke is as steady as they come in the profit department. Perhaps that's why it's raised its base annual payout for 59 consecutive years.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":190,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":119967401,"gmtCreate":1622514208303,"gmtModify":1704185415838,"author":{"id":"3570851798117286","authorId":"3570851798117286","name":"nick14134","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570851798117286","authorIdStr":"3570851798117286"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Tell me your opinion about this news...","listText":"Tell me your opinion about this news...","text":"Tell me your opinion about this news...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/119967401","repostId":"2139648773","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2139648773","pubTimestamp":1622432618,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2139648773?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-31 11:43","market":"hk","language":"en","title":"5 Tech Stocks To Watch In June 2021","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2139648773","media":"Nasdaq","summary":"Four Benjamins will get you strong dividends and solid growth with these stocks.","content":"<p>Could These Top Tech Stocks Be Worth Investing In?</p><p>For investors looking for the most active stocks today,tech stockscould be in their sights.
