How To Earn $500 A Month From NVIDIA Stock

Shares of NVIDIA Corporation NVDA topped the $500 mark in pre-market trading on Thursday after the company reported better-than-expected second-quarter financial results and issued strong revenue guidance for the third quarter.

Shares of several semiconductor and AI-related stocks also traded higher in sympathy with NVIDIA.

NVIDIA’s Data Center revenue surged to a record and accounted for roughly two-thirds of the total. The company’s board also approved an additional $25 billion in share repurchases.

So, how can investors exploit its dividend yield to pocket a regular $500 monthly?

To earn $500 per month or $6,000 annually from dividends alone, you would need an investment of $18,831,000, or 37,500​​​​​​​ shares.

To calculate: Divide the desired annual income ($6,000) by the 0.03% dividend yield ($0.16 in this case). So, $6,000 / $0.16 = 37,500 shares costing $18,831,000, to generate $500 per month.

Note that dividend yield can change on a rolling basis, as the dividend payment and the stock price both fluctuate over time.

How that works: The dividend yield is computed by dividing the annual dividend payment by the stock's current price.

For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and is currently priced at $50, the dividend yield would be 4% ($2/$50). However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). Conversely, if the stock price falls to $40, the dividend yield rises to 5% ($2/$40).

Similarly, changes in the dividend payment can impact the yield. If a company increases its dividend, the yield will also increase, provided the stock price stays the same. Conversely, if the dividend payment decreases, so will the yield.
