DIVIDEND YIELD AND AN APPLICATION ON BORSA ISTANBUL A.Ş.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of cash dividends on stock returns in the Turkish stock market. Firstly, the companies were identified according to their payments and nonpayments of dividends. grouped whether they pay dividends or not. Then the firms that have paid dividends were spilited into portfolios according to their dividend yields and then to their market size. The companies that have not paid dividends were spilited into portfolios according to their market size. Finally, the portfolios were used to calculate and to compare average monthly returns of the companies. The results of the analysis have shown that the portfolias with high dividend yield have higher returns, and market value size and seasonal effect variables do not have significant effects on return.
