EasyResearch Weekly Dividends Update

Written by Cay-Low Mbedzi | Jul 8, 2024 10:21:05 AM

Earnings week has started, and JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, and Citigroup will report quarterly earnings during a period when investors seek stability in major U.S. banks.

Analysts have raised earnings estimates for these banks. JPMorgan, which recently hit all-time highs, is expected to earn $4.13 per share on $41.9 billion in revenue. Wells Fargo's earnings are projected at $1.28 per share on $20.23 billion in revenue, while Citigroup is expected to earn $1.41 per share on $20.09 billion in revenue.

A beat in estimates could potentially lead to a stock rally, while reporting lower earnings than estimates could result in a decline in share price. Higher earnings could mean higher dividend payouts and increased share buyback spending.  Additionally, it’s worth noting that Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, and Morgan Stanley will report next week.

Now, for this week, when it comes to companies with upcoming dividend payouts:

  • PPC Limited is expected to pay dividends after paying the last cash dividend in 2016. Shares of PPC are up 39% in the past year but are still below the 2016 share price range.
  • Zeda Limited (owner of Avis) will be paying its first dividend since listing, and its stock is up 34% in the past year.
  • CuriosityStream Inc. is expected to pay its second dividend and is expected to pay the same dividend annually, reflecting an annual dividend yield of 8% as of writing. Shares are up 27% in the past 12 months.
  • Salesforce Inc. will also be paying its second dividend. With an annual yield lower than 1%, Salesforce’s stock price is up 25% in the past year.

Importantly, past performance does not guarentee future performance. 

There are a number of ETFs (exchange-traded funds) that have upcoming last dates to trade; this includes actively managed funds.

The Prescient Income Provider Feeder Actively Managed ETF aims to deliver consistent income by investing in a diversified mix of income-generating assets (like bonds and property shares). It is one of the actively managed funds that pay dividends monthly and is available in the tax-free savings account on EasyEquities.
