The Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund dividend comes from a fund that allocates at least 80% of its portfolio to blue chip companies, defined by FMR as reputable, well-established firms with significant or mid-range market capitalizations, spanning both domestic and international equities. FBGKX currently yields 1.61%, 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 1.343, this fund carries above-average market sensitivity, making it a fit for growth-and-income investors comfortable with price volatility in exchange for long-term dividend expansion.
Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund pays out dividends as a fund, making the payout ratio not applicable (fund/ETF). Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund dividend safety rests on the underlying portfolio: FMR selects holdings through fundamental analysis of financial health, industry standing, and market conditions, which shapes the income the fund can distribute. The most significant pressure factor is the fund's beta of 1.343, meaning its portfolio value, and by extension its distributable income, moves more sharply than the broader market in both directions.
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 figures 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%, so growth has not been linear.
| 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 expansion over current income, specifically those comfortable holding a fundamentally analyzed blue chip equity fund with meaningful price swings. The current yield is low (below 2%) at 1.61%, sitting below the fund's own 5-year average of 2.36%, which means income at today's price is thinner than it has been historically. What the fund offers in return is a 17.4% annualized dividend growth rate from 2008 to 2024. The trade-off is clear: an investor gets strong long-run dividend growth but accepts a below-average current yield and a beta of 1.343 that amplifies portfolio volatility.
