Dividends are particularly important for investors to consider, because historically speaking dividends have provided a considerable share of the stock market&#8217;s total return. To illustrate, suppose for example you purchased shares of the iShares Russell 3000 ETF (IWV) back on 5\/31\/2000 \u2014 you would have paid $78.27 per share. Fast forward to 5\/31\/2012 and each share was worth $77.79 on that date, a loss of $0.48 or 0.6% decrease over twelve years. But now consider that you collected a whopping $10.77 per share in dividends over the same period, increasing your return to 13.15%. Even with dividends reinvested, that only amounts to an average annual total return of about 1.0%; so by comparison collecting a yield above 6% would appear considerably attractive if that yield is sustainable. Macy&#8217;s Inc (NYSE:M) is a member of the Russell 3000, giving it special status as one of the largest 3000 companies on the U.S. stock markets.<\/p>\n<p><strong data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.dividendchannel.com\/slideshows\/?slideshow=divyield&amp;page=1\">Start slideshow: 10 Stocks Where Yields Got More Juicy \u00bb<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In general, dividend amounts are not always predictable and tend to follow the ups and downs of profitability at each company.
