Alternative ways to invest in AGCO

• Invest in AGCO via a fund

  Buying shares in just one company can leave you more exposed to unexpected swings in the market than if you have a range of investments - a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend having a broad mix of assets and funds that hold a ready-made portfolio of at least 50 different companies' shares, on the basis that drops in the value of some will be offset by rises elsewhere.

  AGCO is a major part of the NYSE index, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).

  Share price volatility

  Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while AGCO's is 1.3395. This would suggest that AGCO's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).

Frequently asked questions

• Does AGCO pay dividends?

  • Dividend yield
  • Forward yield
  • Payout ratio

  Dividend yield: 1.02% of stock value

  Forward annual dividend yield: 1.02% of stock value

  Dividend payout ratio: 42.5% of net profits

  AGCO has recently paid out dividends equivalent to 1.02% of its share value annually.

  AGCO has paid out, on average, around 42.5% of recent net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.02% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), shareholders could enjoy a 1.02% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In AGCO's case, that would currently equate to about $0.96 per share.

  While AGCO's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that it may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

  AGCO's most recent dividend payout was on 19 June 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 17 May 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").

  Currently 16.681% of AGCO shares are held by insiders and 81.899% by institutions.
