How Many NFRA Shares for $500 or $1,000 a Month?
At $1.31 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 4,588 NFRA shares, about $300,698 at the Nov 12, 2026 close of $65.54. $1,000 a month takes about 9,175 shares, about $601,330. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.
FlexShares STOXX Global Broad Infrastructure Index Fund (NFRA) pays $0.327 a share quarterly, $1.31 a year, a 2.00% run-rate yield at the Nov 12, 2026 close of $65.54. A special dividend of $2.62 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 45 dividend payments since 2013.
At today’s rate of $0.327 quarterly and the last close of $65.54, this is what NFRA pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:
| You hold | Each payment | Per month (avg) | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 share | $0.327 | $0.11 | $1.31 |
| 100 shares | $32.70 | $10.90 | $130.80 |
| $10,000 invested (152.6 shares) | $49.89 | $16.63 | $199.57 |
| 4,588 shares ($500/mo) | $1,500.28 | $500.09 | $6,001.10 |
| 9,175 shares ($1,000/mo) | $3,000.23 | $1,000.08 | $12,000.90 |
With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 NFRA shares reinvest into 0.50 new shares each payment, about 2.0 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 201 shares. A rising payout speeds that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less.

NFRA Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range
- NFRA yields 2.00% today, at the Nov 12, 2026 close of $65.54.
- Its own 10-year median is 2.48%, so today’s yield is below 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.
