Wellington’s Kilbride & Fisher on Dividend Growth

In June, the equity risk premium was negative for the first time since the early 2000s, indicating that stocks appear expensive relative to bonds and could yield mixed returns going forward. In this episode of Inside Active, host David Cohne, mutual fund and active management analyst with Bloomberg Intelligence, along with co-host Michael Casper, US small-cap and sector strategist at BI, spoke with Wellington’s Don Kilbride and Peter Fisher, sub-advisers to Vanguard Dividend Growth (VDIGX) and Vanguard International Dividend Growth (VIDGX), about the importance of sustainable dividend growth. They discussed why a commitment to dividends signals confidence in future cash flows and why high dividend yields can sometimes signal unsustainable dividends. The podcast was recorded on June 12.
