- 0:00Hello. I'm Lee Ho-seok.
- 0:02Today, let's talk about dividend stocks
- 0:04.
- 0:05It’s a topic we don’t often cover at the
- 0:07Lee Ho-seok Academy. That’s because I’m
- 0:09not really a big fan of dividend stocks
- 0:11.
- 0:12I hate to say it right from the start,
- 0:14but since I prefer growth stocks over
- 0:15dividend stocks, I don't usually invest
- 0:17in them, but in times like these when
- 0:19it’s hard to beat the market, I think, "
- 0:20Ah, should I have bought some dividend
- 0:22stocks back then?"
- 0:24It’s that kind of timing, and besides,
- 0:26when the cold wind blows, dividend stock
- 0:28investments aimed at year-end payouts
- 0:30tend to become popular again.
- 0:32So, today we are going to talk about
- 0:34dividend stocks. You know, I talked
- 0:37about covered calls last time.
- 0:42When I explained covered calls back then
- 0:45, I described them as... "These are like
- 0:48MSG."
- 0:50"It's like a processed food." That’s how
- 0:52I described it.
- 0:56If you think of covered call products as
- 0:58something that forces a dividend to be
- 1:01created through financial engineering,
- 1:03then dividend stocks are like organic
- 1:06products.
- 1:07Purely organic.
- 1:09So, if you actually want to receive
- 1:12dividends, dividend stocks are cleaner
- 1:14and better than covered calls.
- 1:17But the problem is, these are still
- 1:20stocks. Meaning the stock prices can go
- 1:23up or fall. So it feels a bit
- 1:24nerve-wracking. Also, they say it gives
- 1:26dividends, but is it guaranteed to keep
- 1:28paying them? Is it for real? It’s hard
- 1:31to trust, right? Because covered calls
- 1:33are processed foods, they at least pay
- 1:34you something no matter what. Whether
- 1:36the price of the underlying asset drops
- 1:38or not, they’ll pay you. But with stocks
- 1:40, you worry, "What if they don't pay?""
- 1:42What if the company's performance
- 1:44worsens and they stop paying dividends?
- 1:45"
- 1:46Because of these concerns, there's less
- 1:49trust, and it's a bit ambiguous, but as
- 1:51I said, since it’s not a processed
- 1:53product, it is actually a better
- 1:55investment.
- 1:56If you want cash flow. Which one do I
- 1:59personally prefer? I would generally
- 2:02lean more towards dividend stocks. So, I
- 2:05think we first need to define what a
- 2:07dividend stock is.
- 2:09Let’s take a company, say, HS Academy.
- 2:14The company makes money. It generates
- 2:16revenue. Let’s say the revenue is,
- 2:18hopefully, 1 trillion—is that too much?
- 2:211 trillion.
- 2:22>> It’s gotta be 1 trillion.
- 2:23>> It’s gotta be 1 trillion, so that’s good
- 2:24. Revenue of 1 trillion, and let's say
- 2:27the expenses are how much? Shall we say
- 2:29around 0.5 trillion?
- 2:31So, a profit of 500 billion won—a day
- 2:34like this will come, right?
- 2:36Let’s just say such a day comes. So, if
- 2:38HS Academy has a net profit of 500
- 2:39billion won, that’s huge. The more I
- 2:41think about it, it’s incredible, though
- 2:43it does seem a bit too large, but let’s
- 2:45just say 500 billion won. Then, from the
- 2:47company’s perspective, there are various
- 2:49concerns. "Wow, we made so much profit
- 2:51this year, how should we use it?" That
- 2:53becomes a new concern. At first, our
- 2:55company worried, "Oh, how are we going
- 2:56to pay salaries?" We worried about that
- 2:58, but now that there's money left over—
- 3:00by the way, our company is very far from
- 3:02this situation. I’m just saying that I
- 3:03purposefully talked about something far
- 3:05off, but let’s assume 500 billion is
- 3:06left. Let's just assume. It's 500
- 3:07billion won, where should we spend this
- 3:09? Oh, what should I do? We start to have
- 3:11these concerns, and to talk about this,
- 3:13we need to know the concept of a "life
- 3:15cycle." The concept of a life cycle.
- 3:17What does a life cycle mean? When a
- 3:19company is born, it comes into the world
- 3:22crying, right? Our company is 3 years
- 3:25old now, but when it’s first born, it’s
- 3:27in the red. A deficit. It’s naturally a
- 3:29deficit. There’s no revenue because we
- 3:31started with just an idea, so it’s a
- 3:33deficit.
- 3:34So, moving from a deficit to a surplus,
- 3:37this period is what we call high growth
- 3:39.
- 3:40"Wow, this is crazy, at this rate we’re
- 3:43going to pierce the sky," and that’s why
- 3:45we call them growth companies or growth
- 3:48stocks.
- 3:49At first, as a startup, it doesn't make
- 3:51money, but once it grows and starts
- 3:52making money, it begins to earn at a
- 3:54scary pace. Then the slope starts to
- 3:57bend a little. How does it bend? Look
- 3:59here. It bends like this right here.
- 4:01It’s still growing, but the slope of
- 4:04that growth is bending. This is what we
- 4:07call the maturity stage. Maturity stage
- 4:09.
- 4:10If you compare it to a person, that’s
- 4:12the turbulent period. If you view that
- 4:14as adolescence, the maturity stage is
- 4:16like when you get a job and start to
- 4:18mature. Then, what comes after the
- 4:20maturity stage? The twilight years.
- 4:22>> After passing through the maturity stage
- 4:24, you go through a decline stage.
- 4:26Decline stage.
- 4:27>> Decline, meaning the company’s standing
- 4:30gradually begins to tilt.
- 4:33We thought revenue would be amazing and
- 4:34we’d make even more profit, but alas, it
- 4:36turns out like this.
- 4:38Oh, it just ends up like that. Then you
- 4:40might think like this.
- 4:43At first, the profit is 100 billion,
- 4:44then 200 billion, 300 billion, 500
- 4:46billion, and you think it will continue
- 4:48, but then suddenly, it’s 500 billion,
- 4:50then 400 billion, then 300 billion—if it
- 4:52seems like it’s going to decrease like
- 4:54that, the problem is that companies grow
- 4:56at first.
- 4:58Then everyone, including me, wants to
- 5:00buy your company's stock. That's what
- 5:02happens. When making money. But until
- 5:04this point, I want to buy your stock too
- 5:06. But what happens when it gets to this
- 5:08point?
- 5:09You'd think, "I don't want to hold your
- 5:10stock anymore.""I want to sell it,"
- 5:12you'd say. Then what happens if people
- 5:14just keep selling? The company
- 5:16>> fails.
- 5:16>> It will disappear, right? So, what can
- 5:18be used to tell these people not to sell
- 5:22is dividends. "Don't sell your stock; if
- 5:24you hold it, I'll give you a dividend."
- 5:25That's what it is. For example, it's
- 5:27like this. The net profit of a company
- 5:29called HS Academy is 0.5 trillion won.
- 5:31Then, they could pay dividends out of
- 5:34this. And they could also buy back and
- 5:36retire their own shares. It means buying
- 5:38back treasury shares and retiring them.
- 5:40What "buying back and retiring shares"
- 5:42means is, for instance, in our company,
- 5:44all the employees hold a little bit of
- 5:46stock. "Hand it over.""Just sell it to
- 5:48me." And then we just get rid of them.
- 5:50Then the value for those who didn't sell
- 5:53goes up. Automatically. So, the company
- 5:55buys them with its own money, meaning
- 5:57they pay shareholders to buy back the
- 5:58stock and eliminate it. Since the number
- 6:01of shares decreases, the people who
- 6:02originally held the stock see their
- 6:04value go up just by sitting still.
- 6:06Dividends are just giving money directly
- 6:08to the shareholders.
- 6:10When paying that dividend, for example,
- 6:12if the net profit is 0.5 trillion, what
- 6:14if they pay out 20%?
- 6:16Then they would pay out 0.1 trillion won
- 6:19.
- 6:20And thankfully, luckily, HS Academy is
- 6:22listed, so the market cap of this
- 6:25company is...
- 6:281 trillion? Does that even make sense?
- 6:30Anyway, let's say it's 1 trillion won.
- 6:32Then what happens now? Let's just
- 6:34imagine for a moment. The company was
- 6:35originally making a lot of money, but
- 6:37now that it's starting to decline, they
- 6:38pay a 0.1 trillion won dividend. But the
- 6:40market cap is 1 trillion won. So what
- 6:42happens then? Should we sell it? Should
- 6:45we buy it? When you're pondering this,
- 6:47what you can think about is the dividend
- 6:52yield.
- 6:54How do you calculate the dividend yield
- 6:55? The dividend is 0.1 trillion. But the
- 6:57market cap is 1 trillion. So it becomes
- 7:000.1 divided by 1. What is that? It
- 7:02becomes 10%. Then you can say this. As I
- 7:05mentioned earlier, when it reaches the
- 7:06maturity phase and begins to decline, if
- 7:08they pay a dividend, well, it's 0.1
- 7:10trillion, so that's 10%.
- 7:12"Why would you sell the stock when you
- 7:14get a 10%dividend just by holding it?"
- 7:16You can tell them not to sell. The
- 7:18reason I'm telling you this is that
- 7:21stocks with high dividends rarely fall
- 7:25into this segment. They are stocks in
- 7:27this segment.
- 7:29I drew this diagram calling it 'Setek,'
- 7:31and while there are various types of
- 7:34companies, the point I want to make is
- 7:36that there is no growth.
- 7:39But even if there is no growth, to tell
- 7:41investors not to sell our stock, we must
- 7:43pay high dividends. So, there are
- 7:45companies that pay high dividends. But
- 7:47there are companies capable of paying
- 7:48high dividends. Which companies can
- 7:50afford to pay high dividends?
- 7:51>> Those with solid earnings.
- 7:53>> Exactly. What does it mean to have solid
- 7:55earnings? The company is doing well.
- 7:58>> Being successful is part of it, but
- 7:59>> consistently.
- 8:00>> The expression 'consistently' is
- 8:01important.
- 8:02'Consistently' means that if you want
- 8:04people to believe dividends will
- 8:06continue, you must pay them steadily.
- 8:08What does 'paying consistently' mean? It
- 8:11means they are recession-proof. That's
- 8:13how it is.
- 8:14A company that makes huge profits when
- 8:15the economy is good but suffers heavy
- 8:17losses when it's bad cannot pay
- 8:18dividends.
- 8:19Basically, why couldn't they? Well, if
- 8:22they might face a loss next year, how
- 8:23could they pay dividends? They'd rather
- 8:25save that money to cover next year's
- 8:27potential losses. Because of this
- 8:28mindset, they cannot pay dividends. So,
- 8:30companies that can pay dividends
- 8:32consistently are mostly domestic-demand
- 8:35stocks. Domestic stocks. Domestic demand
- 8:37. What does 'domestic demand' mean? It
- 8:40means doing business within our own
- 8:42country. Within our country. When doing
- 8:45business domestically, our economy also
- 8:47has its ups and downs. But in reality,
- 8:50the difference isn't that massive. A
- 8:53prime example would be food and beverage
- 8:55companies.
- 8:56>> Companies like Lotte or KT&G—I actually
- 8:59consider KT&G to be practically the only
- 9:02true dividend stock in Korea.
- 9:06Besides food and beverages, there are
- 9:08financial stocks, insurance firms, and
- 9:10financial companies.
- 9:12Even when times are tough, they still
- 9:15make money. So, these companies have the
- 9:17capacity to pay dividends.
- 9:19Therefore, you can view stocks related
- 9:21to domestic demand as the ones that pay
- 9:23high dividends.
- 9:25Now, here is where a very important
- 9:27point arises. Are you going to invest in
- 9:29Korean dividend stocks? Are you going to
- 9:31invest in US dividend stocks?
- 9:32Surprisingly, the answer to this
- 9:34question can be found in this one word.
- 9:36Why is that? Well, the Korean domestic
- 9:39market is small, isn't it? The US
- 9:42domestic market is enormous.
- 9:45So, among the companies doing business
- 9:47in the US, there are so many that just
- 9:49keep earning money consistently.
- 9:52>> I have a question.
- 9:53>> What about China or India then?
- 9:55>> In China or India, there aren't many
- 9:58companies that think they should work
- 10:00hard to pay dividends.
- 10:03That’s why I say it’s very good to
- 10:06invest in dividend stocks in the U.S.
- 10:09Let me give you an example; was it three
- 10:11years ago?
- 10:14I went to Omaha.
- 10:17I was really surprised after visiting
- 10:19Omaha.
- 10:20It felt like such a rural area, smack in
- 10:23the middle of the U.S., to the point
- 10:25where I wondered if it was really that
- 10:27rural. But they were just doing their
- 10:30own thing inside, and they had no
- 10:31problem making a living at all.
- 10:34The reason I’m telling you this is that
- 10:36the U.S. is a country where you can make
- 10:37a living just by doing business well
- 10:39within its 50 states.
- 10:41So, since they are making a living, what
- 10:42can they do? They can pay dividends. And
- 10:44they can keep paying those dividends.
- 10:46So, in a way, it could be more
- 10:48advantageous to invest in dividend
- 10:49stocks in the U.S. You can see it as
- 10:51that kind of story.
- 10:53Then, what kind of dividend stocks are
- 10:54there actually? I’ll talk about just two
- 10:57of them. The first one is a dividend
- 10:59stock in Korea. It's the Plus High
- 11:01Dividend stock.
- 11:05Yes. Since you might not know it by just
- 11:07saying "Plus High Dividend," I'll give
- 11:09you the code as well. If you look up
- 11:11161510, it will come up.
- 11:13What are the characteristics of the Plus
- 11:15High Dividend stock?
- 11:17It has been managed by Hanwha Asset
- 11:19Management since 2012. It has the
- 11:21largest AUM among dividend stocks in
- 11:23Korea.
- 11:24It holds as much as 2.2 trillion won.
- 11:27How do they choose them? They pick 30
- 11:29companies expected to pay high dividends
- 11:31in the future from 200 large-cap
- 11:33companies. They select 30 stocks and
- 11:36invest intensively in them. For example
- 11:39, I mentioned it earlier.
- 11:41DB Insurance, then Woori Financial Group
- 11:44.
- 11:47And companies like Industrial Bank of
- 11:49Korea are also included. KT, such
- 11:50telecom stocks will likely be included
- 11:52here as well.
- 11:54Telecom stocks are included, and
- 11:55companies like KT&G that I mentioned
- 11:57earlier are also in there.
- 11:59These are representative dividend stocks
- 12:01in our country. These dividend stocks
- 12:03seem like they will pay a lot of
- 12:04dividends now and in the future as well
- 12:05. So, if you want to invest in dividend
- 12:07stocks, investing in Plus High Dividend
- 12:09stocks is also a good method.
- 12:11Domestically, that is. But what if you
- 12:12want to invest in the U.S.? Then what
- 12:14happens?
- 12:15Many of you are probably already
- 12:16investing in the U.S. It’s the concept
- 12:18of SCHD.
- 12:19This ETF called SCHD has its own
- 12:21characteristics.
- 12:23To get into this ETF, since there are
- 12:25many companies in the U.S. that pay high
- 12:28dividends, they can line them up and say
- 12:30, "You come in, and you go away."
- 12:32That’s how many pools of
- 12:33high-dividend-paying companies there are
- 12:34right now. There aren't that many in our
- 12:36country. But in the U.S., there are
- 12:37truly many companies like that. So,
- 12:39there are criteria, such as having no
- 12:42years without dividends for at least 10
- 12:45years. But honestly, this is a very
- 12:47difficult task. I mean, it means you
- 12:49have to keep doing business well for 10
- 12:50years. Or it could even be like this.
- 12:53Some companies didn't do well, but they
- 12:54even borrowed money just to pay
- 12:56dividends. Companies like Apple borrow
- 12:58money to buy back their own shares. So,
- 13:00the determination to return value to
- 13:02shareholders through dividends must be
- 13:04that firm. This 10-year period is what
- 13:06is truly important. Second is cash. When
- 13:10cash comes in, we examine if they have
- 13:13the ability to pay off their debt with
- 13:15it.
- 13:16We also look at whether they make good
- 13:18money, and naturally, whether they have
- 13:20increased dividends is another criterion
- 13:22.
- 13:23Meaning they don't just pay a little, or
- 13:25pay the same amount, but they have been
- 13:27increasing dividends every year.
- 13:29If we think about how this is possible,
- 13:31it's because, as I mentioned, the U.S.
- 13:33domestic market is so robust. That is
- 13:35how it can be seen.
- 13:38This dividend product, SCHD, has very
- 13:40important advantages in this sense, and
- 13:42if I were to explain the reason why it
- 13:45can continue to invest well personally,
- 13:47in one word, it has built a strong
- 13:49economic moat.
- 13:53So, by building a moat to keep out
- 13:55competitors and protect their business
- 13:58from being disrupted, companies can
- 14:00continue to earn a lot and pay high
- 14:02dividends, so there's no problem for us
- 14:05to invest.
- 14:07This is how we can summarize it.
- 14:10>> Oh, CEO, but you said last time that for
- 14:12Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500, it might be more
- 14:14profitable to buy products replicated in
- 14:16Korea due to tax issues.
- 14:18>> Ah, right, right, exactly. We always
- 14:20emphasize the importance of accounts.
- 14:24Among accounts, as you are likely
- 14:26familiar with now, there is the pension
- 14:28savings account.
- 14:30And there is the ISA account. In fact,
- 14:32those who invest in dividend stocks
- 14:35should make good use of all of these.
- 14:38Because the dividend yield is high,
- 14:40there are conditions when using these
- 14:41accounts.
- 14:43For pension savings, you must not
- 14:44withdraw until age 55. For ISA, you must
- 14:47hold it for at least 3 years.
- 14:49There are criteria like these, and since
- 14:51meeting them allows you to save on taxes
- 14:53when receiving dividends, you really
- 14:54need to pay close attention to your
- 14:56accounts when investing in dividend
- 14:57stocks.
- 14:59But the problem is, unfortunately, you
- 15:01cannot invest in this through such
- 15:03accounts. However, there are replicas of
- 15:06the same thing created in Korea. You can
- 15:09actually invest in those through this
- 15:11account.
- 15:12So, if you search for "US Dividend Dow
- 15:17Jones" under TIGER or KODEX, those
- 15:20products will come up.
- 15:25Since these are Korean-listed products
- 15:28that replicate SCHD, you can invest in
- 15:31them and receive benefits while doing so
- 15:34.
- 15:35I think you can look at it that way. CEO
- 15:37, you explained high-dividend stocks
- 15:39earlier, but what about Samsung and
- 15:41Hynix this time?
- 15:42>> I hear they pay out huge dividends, so
- 15:44why aren't they included?
- 15:45Ah, regarding the domestic demand we
- 15:47discussed earlier, the opposite of
- 15:49domestic demand is exports. The opposite
- 15:52of domestic demand is exports.
- 15:53While doing well in exports is a great
- 15:55thing, to succeed in exports, other
- 15:57countries 'economies must be strong and
- 15:59the demand for semiconductors must also
- 16:01be high.
- 16:02And currently, the demand for
- 16:03semiconductors is incredibly strong. It
- 16:05will likely be good next year as well.
- 16:06But will it still be good in ten years?
- 16:08When I think about whether it will
- 16:09remain this good for ten years, I start
- 16:11to have some concerns. That’s because,
- 16:13in any case, this sector is highly
- 16:14sensitive to the economy. It is
- 16:16sensitive to economic cycles. It is also
- 16:18sensitive to demand, which is why we
- 16:20call it cyclical. There are times when
- 16:21it's good and times when it's not,
- 16:22repeating the cycle.
- 16:24Because of this, since they aren't
- 16:25domestic demand stocks and can't earn
- 16:27money consistently, we can't yet assume
- 16:29that dividends will be stable.
- 16:32But what if Samsung and Hynix were to
- 16:34say, "Hey, we're going to keep earning
- 16:36plenty of money next year and the year
- 16:37after, so we'll pay out generous
- 16:39dividends."
- 16:40If they spoke with such confidence, then
- 16:42they could truly be classified as
- 16:43dividend stocks.
- 16:45At that point, I truly believe our stock
- 16:47market would enter an incredibly massive
- 16:49bull market.
- 16:50That would be the day Samsung
- 16:52Electronics and Hynix become like TSMC.
- 16:55Right now, the PER of Samsung and Hynix
- 16:58is not even five, while TSMC’s is over
- 17:0020. Just from that alone, there is
- 17:02potential for a four-fold increase.
- 17:03So, while I believe this opportunity
- 17:05will come someday, for now, the market
- 17:07view on Samsung and Hynix is that
- 17:09because they are cyclical, they make
- 17:10money now but will eventually lose it
- 17:12later.
- 17:14Since these thoughts dominate the market
- 17:16, that is the reason why Samsung and
- 17:18Hynix cannot be categorized as dividend
- 17:21stocks yet.
- 17:22However, since they pay decent dividends
- 17:24now and their stock prices have dropped
- 17:25significantly, it would be good to
- 17:27consider those factors when investing.
- 17:29So, I’ve explained dividend stocks today
- 17:31.
- 17:33To sum it up, while you should look at
- 17:36dividend yield—how much you get relative
- 17:40to the stock price—the key is the
- 17:42numerator: the earnings.
- 17:45You need to invest in dividend stocks
- 17:49based on whether those earnings are
- 17:52consistent, not just hit-or-miss. I’ve
- 17:56covered some ETFs and which accounts to
- 18:00use, so I hope those investing in
- 18:03dividends will actively use this
- 18:06information. As mentioned earlier, when
- 18:08comparing covered calls to dividend
- 18:09stocks, the latter are like organic
- 18:11products, which offer many more
- 18:12advantages.
- 18:14However, it would be best if you
- 18:15considered the pros and cons when making
- 18:17your investment decisions.
- 18:19Alright, that wraps up today’s
- 18:20discussion on dividend stock investing.
- 18:21We’ll see you again next time. Thank you
- 18:24.
