How Many AOR Shares for $500 or $1,000 a Month?
At $1.26 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 4,762 AOR shares, about $323,340 at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $67.90. $1,000 a month takes about 9,524 shares, about $646,680. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.
iShares Core 60/40 Balanced Allocation ETF (AOR) pays $0.315 a share quarterly, $1.26 a year, a 1.86% run-rate yield at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $67.90. It has made 72 dividend payments since 2008.
At today’s rate of $0.315 quarterly and the last close of $67.90, this is what AOR pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:
| You hold | Each payment | Per month (avg) | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 share | $0.315 | $0.11 | $1.26 |
| 100 shares | $31.50 | $10.50 | $126.00 |
| $10,000 invested (147.3 shares) | $46.39 | $15.46 | $185.57 |
| 4,762 shares ($500/mo) | $1,500.03 | $500.01 | $6,000.12 |
| 9,524 shares ($1,000/mo) | $3,000.06 | $1,000.02 | $12,000.24 |
With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 AOR shares reinvest into 0.46 new shares each payment, about 1.9 new shares a year at today’s price and rate, and each new share collects the next payment too. To DRIP one whole new share every payment you need about 216 shares. A rising payout speeds that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less.

AOR Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range
- AOR yields 1.86% today, at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $67.90.
- Its own 10-year median is 2.54%, so today’s yield is near its usual level.
- No steady norm: its payout changed too much in 3 years to read a steady norm. So this reads today’s yield against its own 10-year history as it is.
Where today ranks in its own history is in the paid report
How it works. Each month-end over the last 10 years gives one yield: the regular payment then, times payments a year, over that day’s close. Specials are left out. 50 means today’s yield sits right at its usual level. A lower score means the yield is below its usual level, so the price is high against the payout. A higher score means the yield is above its usual level. On price alone a payer stays between 15 and 85. Steady raisers get a few points back. It reads the past, not the future.

- Ex-dates: about every 92 days (quarterly)

Against the 10 dividend funds in Asset Management - Global closest to AOR in fund size, AOR’s 1.86% run-rate yield is above the group’s middle yield of 1.35%. A higher yield than the group is not a bonus by itself: it is often the market pricing in a cut, so read it next to the rating and the coverage behind it.

What the Dividend Safety Rating Means for AOR
AOR Dividend Questions
How often does AOR pay dividends?
AOR pays quarterly, 4 times a year. Recent payments arrived in Apr, Jul, Oct and Dec, with ex-dates in Apr, Jul, Oct and Dec. The ex-date comes about every 92 days, and the cash usually lands about 3 days later.
Does AOR pay dividends monthly?
No. AOR pays quarterly, 4 times a year. For payers that pay every month, see the monthly dividend stocks.
When is the next AOR dividend?
AOR has not declared its next dividend yet. By its usual rhythm of about 92 days between ex-dates, the next ex-date falls around Jan 2, 2027, with the cash around Jan 5, 2027. An estimate, not a promise: only the declaration makes it final. The latest one, $0.315 a share, went ex on Oct 2, 2026 and paid Oct 5, 2026. The current rate is $0.315 per share, $1.26 a year.
Does AOR pay a dividend in January 2027?
Not declared yet. By its usual rhythm the next ex-date falls around Jan 2, 2027, with the cash around Jan 5, 2027, so a payment in January 2027 is likely. Only the company’s declaration makes it final.
How much does AOR pay per share?
AOR pays $0.315 a share quarterly, $1.26 a year. At the Nov 13, 2026 close of $67.90 that is a 1.86% run-rate yield, near its usual level: its own 10-year median is 2.54%.
Does AOR’s payout grow?
Its last 4 payments added up to $1.815, against $1.5943 for the 4 before (+13.8%). A fund passes through what its holdings pay, so its payout moves with them rather than on a set raise schedule. Measured over a full year, the payout rate changed +17.5%.
Is AOR’s dividend safe?
No rating can promise a future payment, but the record on file says a lot. This is data, not investment advice. The full 3-check rating comes with a plan.
How do I track my AOR dividends?
Add AOR to a free DRIPCalc portfolio once, with your buy date and share count. Every payout since fills in, dated and in dollars; with DRIP on, the new shares each payment buys are counted for you, so there is no spreadsheet to update and no broker login. To project the snowball, run AOR in the DRIP calculator.
