Dividend yield is the annual dividend payment divided by the current stock price, expressed as a percentage. For example, a stock paying $4/year with a current price of $100 has a 4% yield.
DRIP stands for Dividend Reinvestment Plan. Instead of receiving dividends as cash, they are automatically reinvested to buy more shares. Over time, this compounding effect significantly boosts total returns.
Yield on cost (YOC) is the dividend yield calculated on your original purchase price, not the current price. If you paid $50 for a stock now at $100 paying $4/year, your YOC is 8% even though the current yield is 4%.
