Yield on Cost Report

• What feature do you want to see in Sharesight?
I’d like a Yield on Cost report. For instance, a table that shows all my stocks and their approximate dividend yield on my original cost. A lot of people have also asked for estimated annual payouts based on the most current dividend. This could be included in that same report.

• Why do you want it?
I’m primarily a dividend investor. If I’m going to swap something from my portfolio it is good to know approximately how much yield I need to replace for the amount being sold. Also, as a dividend growth investor it helps me quickly see which ones are contributing the most and if some companies are getting to where I want them to be based on my initial investment.

• How is this affecting you?
I currently have to track all this manually in a spreadsheet.

• Do you currently have a workaround solution? If yes, what is it?
I currently have to track all this manually in a spreadsheet.

• Can we reach out in future to ask follow up questions about this idea?
Yes.
