How Many OXY Shares for $500 or $1,000 a Month?
At $1.12 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 5,358 OXY shares, about $304,977 at the Nov 11, 2026 close of $56.92. $1,000 a month takes about 10,715 shares, about $609,898. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.
Occidental Petroleum (OXY) pays $0.28 a share quarterly, $1.12 a year, a 1.97% run-rate yield at the Nov 11, 2026 close of $56.92. It has paid since 1982 and raised its annual dividend 4 years in a row.
At today’s rate of $0.28 quarterly and the last close of $56.92, this is what OXY pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:
| You hold | Each payment | Per month (avg) | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 share | $0.28 | $0.09 | $1.12 |
| 100 shares | $28.00 | $9.33 | $112.00 |
| $10,000 invested (175.7 shares) | $49.19 | $16.40 | $196.77 |
| 5,358 shares ($500/mo) | $1,500.24 | $500.08 | $6,000.96 |
| 10,715 shares ($1,000/mo) | $3,000.20 | $1,000.07 | $12,000.80 |
With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 OXY shares reinvest into 0.49 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 204 shares. Raises speed that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less.

OXY Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range

- Its own 5-year median is 1.22%, so today’s yield is above its usual level.
Where today ranks in its own history is in the paid report
How it works. Each month-end over the last 5 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 OXY’s Next Dividend? Ex-Date and Pay Date After September 2026
OXY has not declared its next dividend yet. By its usual rhythm of about 92 days between ex-dates, the next ex-date falls around Dec 11, 2026, with the cash around Dec 13, 2026. An estimate, not a promise: only the declaration makes it final. The latest one, $0.28 a share, went ex on Sep 10, 2026 and paid Sep 14, 2026.
- Ex-dates: about every 92 days (quarterly)
- Payment: usually about 2 days after the ex-date

OXY vs Similar Dividend Stocks (MPLX, OKE...)
Against the 10 dividend-paying Energy companies closest to OXY in market value, OXY’s 1.97% run-rate yield is below the group’s middle yield of 2.71%, and its raise streak of 4 years is the 2nd longest. 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.
