  • Check dividend history: Past performance indicates reliability - look for consistent payers
  • Don't chase yields: Very high yields (10%+) may indicate risk or unsustainable dividends
  • Consider imputation: Fully imputed dividends are more valuable for NZ tax residents
  • Diversify your portfolio: Don't just pick the winner - both stocks might fit different roles
