By my count, that's the second highest out of all the stocks comprising the S&P/ASX 200 Index  – behind only mining giant Fortescue Ltd . An ASX 200 stock with a dividend yield approaching 10% is bona fide catnip for income-seeking investors. But beware – a high dividend yield can sometimes also indicate a weakening stock price. And if the declining stock price is driven by lower profits, it's likely that future dividend payments will also decrease. So, the income you actually wind up earning from your investment may not turn out to be what you'd originally hoped for. In this article, we'll take a look at the reasons behind Spark's eye-watering dividend yield, so that you can decide whether it's the right investment for you.
