Tracking My Ford ($F) Investment – A Month In
A month ago, I decided to buy some Ford ($F) stock at $9.65 per share. I wasn’t expecting to strike gold, but I saw it as a steady investment with solid dividend payouts.
Today, as I write this, Ford sits at $10.17—a modest but encouraging increase. While it’s always interesting to watch stock prices fluctuate, dividends add another layer to the investment equation.
What 200 Shares Would Look Like
Hypothetically, if I had 200 shares, my total stock value today would be $2,034.
Beyond stock appreciation, Ford offers a 5.90% annual dividend yield and pays $0.15 per share quarterly. That means with 200 shares, I’d be looking at:
- $30 per quarter in dividends
- $120 annually in passive income
The Bigger Picture
Ford has historically maintained its dividend payouts, making it an appealing choice for income-focused investors. While stock growth is important, dividends provide consistent returns—something worth considering for long-term holdings.
I’ll keep tracking this investment and see how things develop. Where do you see Ford heading next?
