EasyResearch Weekly Dividends Update

EasyResearch Weekly Dividends Update
1:42

Copper prices are expected to rise, driven by increased global demand and tighter supply. Notably, this week’s dividend update includes Freeport-McMoRan Inc., one of the world’s largest copper producers, which has announced both an ordinary and a variable dividend (a dividend payment that fluctuates based on a company's performance). 

For long-term investors, this could be a strategic moment to tap into both capital growth and income potential.

  • Shareholders may benefit from rising stock prices and higher dividend payouts as copper prices climb. 
  • Reinvested dividends could help unlock compound returns in a sector with strong future demand.

Main Street Capital Corp will be paying its monthly cash dividend this month, following both an ordinary and a special dividend in June.

  • The company has a history of issuing multiple dividend payments (ordinary and special) twice a year, typically in March and June, since 2022.

Our latest dividend update includes Oracle Corporation, now at an all-time high and known for rewarding shareholders with dividends and stock splits that issue extra shares based on current holdings.

  • Intuit Inc, also trading at an all-time high, will pay dividends this week, with the last day to qualify fast approaching, the company has only performed three stock splits since listing.
