June 2021 Dividend Income

Another month gone and it is time for me to post my June 2021 Dividend Income! I added a new page to the website. Check out My Goals page, to see the goals I had set for 2021. Also, I added future milestones that I hope to reach in due course of time. In addition, I included a list of milestones I previously achieved since I started this blog. I figured it be pretty cool to consolidate all that in one place, rather then having to search through various posts over the years. But without further ado, for June 2021, I received $1,422.09 in dividend income from twenty-six (26) companies!

 

  • PFE – $67.08
  • SO – $133.98
  • IBM – $158.25
  • TGT – $47.60
  • VFC – $32.83
  • MCD – $92.06
  • O – $44.18
  • ARCC – $380.80
  • ED – $66.65
  • JNJ – $16.96
  • WFC – $9.90
  • LYB – $45.20
  • D – $34.65
  • SJM – $18.00
  • MMM – $28.12
  • CVX – $22.78
  • DUK – $32.81
  • UPS – $20.40
  • KEY – $41.07
  • EMR – $16.67
  • AFL – $18.15
  • KTB – $3.60

  • INTC – $13.90
  • PEP – $34.40
  • VTRS – $2.31

June 2021 Dividend Income Total: $1,422.09

This was a record month as I cracked the $1,400 mark for the first time. This month shows a 7.9% year over year increase when compared to June 2020. Also, I was paid by 26 companies, which is also a new record. It is funny looking back to see that four years ago, only seven companies paid me. In addition, this is the first time I received a dividend payment from VTRS since it was spun off. Thus, that is what I would call a great month! Now on to the dividend increases.

      • O increased dividend to $0.2355 per share resulting in a $1.13 increase.
      • TGT increased dividend to $0.90 per share resulting in a $61.60 increase.

All in all, this monthโ€™s dividend increases totaled $62.73.

The big hero of the month for me was TGT which raised itโ€™s dividend by 32 percent! That was really the highlight of the month. TGT has actually been one of my top performing stocks since I bought it 4 years ago. In terms of value, the stock has growth to rank 3rd place in my portfolio with nearly $17K in value. Not bad for a $4K investment 4 years ago. Also, I collected $684 in dividend income from TGT over the course of those 4 years.

Thus, this concludes my May 2021 Dividend income. I am ready to make some new stock purchases soon, however, I am waiting to see how the market unfolds a bit. Either way, purchases will be made soon. My portfolio is now set to generate $11,435 in dividend income over the next 12 months. I continue to work on achieving my goals and continue to grow my dividend income each year. It is onwards to the $12K milestone as I continue to build my dividend dynasty!

So, how do you do this month? Break any records? Also, do you own TGT? If so, how awesome was that dividend increase?! Let me know in the comments below!
