SPG Simon Property Group Inc.
Simon Property Group Inc. has a solid dividend profile with no major red flags in the snapshot data.
Why we rate it 7.3
- Yield of 4.19% is on the higher end but historically sustainable for REITs and quality income payers
- Payout ratio of 62% is on the higher side — leaves less buffer for earnings volatility
- Current yield is below the 5-year average (4.99%), often a sign that price has appreciated faster than dividend growth
- Large-cap scale (>$50B) — established business with predictable cash flows
Where SPG ranks
We compute the same 0–10 safety score across 53 dividend-paying stocks and ETFs. Here's where SPG lands inside that universe.
The universe is curated to the most-searched US dividend payers. We'll expand it as the data layer grows; sector percentiles only appear when we have at least 5 comparable peers.
The two questions a safety score doesn't answer
A safety score tells you how durable SPG's payout looks. It does not tell you what you keep after tax, or whether something else does the same job better.
On tax: what you actually pocket depends on whether SPG dividends are qualified — qualified distributions are taxed at 0%, 15%, or 20%, while ordinary ones are taxed at your full marginal rate, a gap that can reach 22 percentage points of the income on the same headline yield.
On substitutes: if SPG's 7.3/10 score is lower than you want, see SPG alternatives — same-sector stocks ranked by how closely they match SPG on both yield and safety, so you can see what a swap actually costs you.

Every Infnits dividend safety score is computed from the same factors (yield zone, payout ratio, trend vs 5-year average, instrument type, size). The history above is recomputed directly from each day's fundamentals snapshot, so the line reflects how the underlying signals actually moved — not retroactive smoothing.
