Caterpillar just raised its dividend for the 32nd straight year, but the yield is now at its lowest ever — just 0.75% — thanks to a stock that’s surged over 55% this year and more than 110% in the past 12 months. The boom in construction equipment demand, fueled by AI infrastructure build-out, has pushed the stock to a premium valuation, making it a growth play rather than an income stock. With a quarterly payout of $1.51 and strong fundamentals, Caterpillar remains poised for continued dividend growth — but new investors should expect a long-term horizon to justify the current price.
