BCE breaks 15-year dividend streak to fund U.S. fiber expansion
BCE shareholders saw a 7.95% share price decline over the last month. This follows the company's first dividend cut since 2009. The payout reduction coincides with the acquisition of U.S.-based Ziply Fiber. The shift in shareholder payout and cross-border footprint has contributed to a 36.39% decline in 3-year total shareholder return.
