Caterpillar’s Dividend Yield Is Rising Again

Caterpillar’s Dividend Yield Is Rising Again

Why Did Caterpillar Increase Its Dividend? As of July 11, Caterpillar’s (CAT) dividend yield was 2.4%—the highest in the past three quarters. To calculate the current dividend yield, we have factored in that Caterpillar would be paying the new dividend rate for the remaining quarters in fiscal 2018. In comparison, Boeing (BA), Honeywell (HON), and General Electric (GE) have dividend yields of 2%, 2.06%, and 3.4%, respectively.
