Mercedes-Benz: Steady Dividends Despite Volatility
🚗 Mercedes-Benz showed more moderate capital appreciation compared to Broadcom, with a hypothetical €1,000 investment growing to €1,647 over 15 years (a 68.73% gain).
💶 Dividends played a crucial role in the total return, contributing €1,570 over the period, exceeding the capital gains for the initial investment amount.
⚠️ The company's dividend history was described as erratic, with periods of cuts or suspensions, which the presenter flagged as an undesirable trait for consistent dividend income investors.
