ShareDividends.com.au - Australian Company Share Dividend History, Forecasts, Ex-Dividend Dates for Share Investors

Welcome to ShareDividends.com.au

ShareDividends.com.au is a FREE dividend information resource for Australian share investors and traders.

ASX Dividends are an important part of total returns for share investors. For example, in the five years to 31/12/2011 Commonwealth Bank (CBA) increased from $48.74 to $49.91 or only $1.17 in capital growth. Meanwhile, the value of fully franked dividends paid during this period was $19.43, or 94% of total shareholder returns. Similarly, Telstra (TLS) has generated $2.00 in fully franked dividend income over  five years while its share price has fallen $0.81 from $4.14 to $3.33, a net positive return of $1.19 per share.

In these uncertain times, quality Australian fully franked dividends are in strong demand. ShareDividends.com.au has analysed its historical dividend database to find the select few stocks that have increased dividends consistently over the last five years, what we call the Safe Dividend Shares . Now this is by no means a recommendation and past performance is no guarantee of the future but the list serves as a useful start point for formulating your own dividend investment strategy.
