Stocks: How do stocks with dividends grow compared to stocks without?

Kevin S asked:


I’m looking for a link to such studies here, so hopefully I can save time from doing my own studies. Basically, I’m looking for edges in the market, and even if dividend stocks grow at the same rate as non-dividend stocks, and dividends are a percent, than I will have a percent plus compounding on that percent every year. May not be much, but every edge counts. Please note that only statistics and studies will help me here. Thanks!

   Part of earnings “growth” is earnings from investments made from earnings. Companies have two choices when it comes to earnings, pay it out as dividends, or reinvest it in existing or new businesses to generate additional income going forward. Companies that pay higher dividends are investing less and therefore figure to be growing slower. Companies that pay lower dividends figure to be investing more, and growing faster. No free lunch here.
