The Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund dividend comes from a fund that puts at least 80% of its assets into blue chip companies, defined by FMR as reputable, well-established firms with significant or mid-range market capitalizations. FBGKX currently yields 1.64%, with a trailing annual dividend rate of $5.0730 per share paid quarterly. The next ex-dividend date is September 12, 2025. With a beta of 1.37, this fund carries above-average price volatility, making it a better fit for growth-and-income investors than those seeking steady, low-risk income.
Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund pays out dividends as a fund, making a traditional payout ratio not applicable (fund/ETF). Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund dividend safety rests on the underlying portfolio's performance: the fund invests in financially robust blue chip companies selected through fundamental analysis of financial health, industry standing, and market conditions, which supports the capacity to distribute income. The most significant pressure on the dividend is the fund's own price and portfolio volatility, reflected in a beta of 1.37, which means distributions can swing sharply from year to year as the underlying holdings fluctuate.
Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund dividend history shows a CAGR of 17.4% per year from 2008 to 2024. Per-share payments grew from $1.0530 to $13.7110 over that window (2025 and 2026 data are partial years and excluded from this calculation). The largest annual increase in the window was 747.9% in 2024, though the history also contains at least one year-over-year decline exceeding 5%, reflecting how closely distributions track the fund's underlying portfolio returns.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5-Year | -13.5% | $10.49 (2020) | $5.07 (2025) |
| 10-Year | -3.2% | $7.03 (2015) | $5.07 (2025) |
FBGKX fits growth-and-income investors who prioritize dividend growth over current yield, not those who need predictable quarterly income. The current yield of 1.64% is classified as low (below 2%), and it sits meaningfully below the fund's own 5-year average yield of 2.41%, which tells you the fund is currently distributing less relative to price than it has historically. What an investor gets here is exposure to a long-run dividend growth rate of 17.4% per year, backed by a portfolio of blue chip companies selected on fundamental criteria. The trade-off is real: year-to-year distributions are volatile, the yield is low, and the beta of 1.37 means the ride is bumpy.
