Happy Super Bowl Sunday To Those Who Celebrate! π
Can't invest directly in the NFL? No problem! I had my lead researcher work hard on finding the top dividend-paying stocks that let you profit from America's favorite sport:
1. πΊ Comcast (CMCSA) - 4.21% Yield The Super Bowl broadcaster! NBC airs the big game in 2026, 2029, and 2033. Sunday Night Football = #1 primetime show for 13 straight years. 17 years of dividend increases.
2. π₯€ PepsiCo (PEP) - 3.34% Yield Official Soft Drink of the NFL for 25 years! Gatorade owns every sideline. Doritos, Tostitos, Lay's dominate Super Bowl snacking. 53-year dividend streak = Dividend King status.
3. π± Verizon (VZ) - 6.11% Yield Highest yield on this list! Official 5G Network of the NFL. Powers 30 stadiums and coach communications. 19 consecutive years of dividend growth.
4. π Nike (NKE) - 2.57% Yield Every NFL uniform through 2038! $200M annual exclusive apparel deal. 23-year dividend growth streak. If they're on the field, they're probably wearing Nike.
5. π₯€ Coca-Cola (KO) - 2.58% Yield Pouring rights at 24 of 30 NFL stadiums! 62 consecutive years of dividend increases. Ultimate safety + gameday profits.
6. πͺ Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS) - 2.33% Yield Just bought Foot Locker for $2.4B! Now 3,200+ stores selling NFL jerseys and fan gear. 10 years of consecutive dividend growth and NFL season drives Q3/Q4 sales surge.
7. π§ Tyson Foods (TSN) - 3.13% Yield Americans eat 1.48 BILLION chicken wings during Super Bowl weekend! Tyson supplies the wings. Gameday = payday. 3.45% yield for income investors + 13 straight years of dividend raises.
8. π¬ Disney (DIS) - 1.38% Yield ESPN's Monday Night Football! Just bought 10% of NFL Network for $3B. Dividend raise of 50% in November 2025, but still below pre-COVID levels. Growth + NFL exposure.
9. π» Microsoft (MSFT) - 0.91% Yield Surface tablets on every sideline! Azure AI powers scouting and game analysis. A fast growing dividend + 33% payout ratio = plenty of room for dividend growth.
10. π Sysco (SYY) - 2.50% Yield Supplies food to NFL stadiums and Super Bowl host cities! 56-year dividend streak = Dividend King. The ultimate defensive stock with NFL upside.
BONUS - Growth Plays (No Dividends):
π° Flutter (FLUT) - Owns FanDuel (43% market share) π² DraftKings (DKNG) - Official NFL betting partner π¦ Amazon (AMZN) - Thursday Night Football through 2032

Here's your weekly helping of interesting investing information and insights. Opinion The P/E ratio has probably scared more investors out of more great companies than any bear market ever has. Itβs happened to all of us, and this will 100% shift your mindset. And if you have no idea what the hell a P/E ratio is, it's actually pretty simple. A P/E of 15 means you're paying $15 for every $1 a company earns. The market's historical average is around 15-20x. So when something shoots way above...
Here's your weekly helping of interesting investing information and insights. Opinion March was rough. Our net worth dropped $53,000 in one month and we officially lost millionaire status. But when you zoom out, a 5% drop that matches a 5% market selloff isn't a disaster. The market went down, we went down with it, and now everything is on sale. I'm not panicking. I'm shopping. A down market is actually a gift if you've got time on your side. You're buying the same companies at a lower price,...
Here's your weekly helping of interesting investing information and insights. Opinion Jonathan Boyar was on The Compound and Friends podcast and had the most brilliant phrase I've heard in years - Premature Accumulation!
