Among S&P 500 companies, there were 42 dividend suspensions and 26 cuts this year, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices.
Looking ahead, Goldman expects dividends paid out by S&P 500 companies to increase by about 5% in 2021 to $534 billion. What’s more, the company says that next year should also be better for buybacks, which took an even bigger hit this year as companies tried to preserve capital. Goldman Sachs expects S&P 500 share repurchases to total $602 billion in 2021, up 15% from $524 billion this year but still well below 2019’s level of about $750 billion. The firm has forecast a 30% drop in share repurchases this year to $524 billion.
