Recently Star Bulk Carriers has paid out, on average, around 75.52% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 12.6% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Star Bulk Carriers shareholders could enjoy a 12.6% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Star Bulk Carriers's case, that would currently equate to about $1.82 per share.
Star Bulk Carriers's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.

This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Star Bulk Carriers shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 400% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Star Bulk Carriers shares which in turn could have impacted Star Bulk Carriers's share price.
Star Bulk Carriers share price volatility
