How Many GRMAX Shares for $500 or $1,000 a Month?

At $0.15 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 39,474 GRMAX shares, about $1,330,274 at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $33.70. $1,000 a month takes about 78,948 shares, about $2,660,548. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.

Nationwide S&P 500 Index Fund (GRMAX) pays $0.038 a share quarterly, $0.15 a year, a 0.45% run-rate yield at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $33.70. A special dividend of $1.403 came on top in the last year; specials are paid case by case, so they never count in the rate or the yield here. It has made 79 dividend payments since 2007.

At today’s rate of $0.038 quarterly and the last close of $33.70, this is what GRMAX pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:

You holdEach paymentPer month (avg)Per year
1 share$0.038$0.01$0.15
100 shares$3.80$1.27$15.20

78,948 shares ($1,000/mo)$3,000.02$1,000.01$12,000.10

With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 GRMAX shares reinvest into 0.11 new shares each payment, about 0.5 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 887 shares. A rising payout speeds that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less.

GRMAX Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range

24/100Below its usual yieldvs its 10-yr history
  • GRMAX yields 0.45% today, at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $33.70.
  • Its own 10-year median is 0.81%, so today’s yield is below its usual level.
  • No steady norm: a 0.45% yield is too small to say much about the price. So this reads today’s yield against its own 10-year history as it is.
Last 5 years: lowest to highest month-end yield
0.20% low1.65% high
Blue mark = today, grey = its 10-year median. A higher yield than usual means a lower price against the payout.

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.

When Is GRMAX’s Next Dividend? Ex-Date and Pay Date After September 2026

GRMAX has not declared its next dividend yet. By its usual rhythm of about 91 days between ex-dates, the next ex-date falls around Dec 16, 2026, with the cash around Dec 18, 2026.

  • Ex-dates: about every 91 days (quarterly)

Against the 10 dividend funds in Asset Management closest to GRMAX in fund size, GRMAX’s 0.45% run-rate yield is below the group’s middle yield of 3.29%. 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.

How this page is built: the rate is the latest regular dividend per share; run-rate yield = rate × payments per year ÷ last close (Nov 13, 2026), never a trailing 12-month total, which lags after a raise and hides a cut. Specials and one-off payments never count in the rate; a payer whose regular payments differ in size is annualized over its last full cycle of regular payments. Raise streak = consecutive calendar years with a higher amount per payment than the year before; years without a cut = years in which the amount per payment held within 1%. The Dividend Safety Rating reads 3 visible lines: coverage, streak, raise pace and yield range for dividend stocks; NAV trend, NAV funding and payout stability for income funds. Similar payers = the same sector or fund group, nearest in market value or fund size. Payments, prices and filings come from DRIPCALC’s price and dividend database. History is not a forecast. This is data, not investment advice.
