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

At $1.08 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 5,536 PICK shares, about $307,968 at the Nov 10, 2026 close of $55.63. $1,000 a month takes about 11,071 shares, about $615,880. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.

iShares MSCI Global Metals & Mining Producers ETF (PICK) pays $0.542 a share twice a year, $1.08 a year, a 1.95% run-rate yield at the Nov 10, 2026 close of $55.63. It has made 32 dividend payments since 2012.

At today’s rate of $0.542 twice a year and the last close of $55.63, this is what PICK pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:

You holdEach paymentPer month (avg)Per year
1 share$0.542$0.09$1.08
100 shares$54.20$9.03$108.40

11,071 shares ($1,000/mo)$6,000.48$1,000.08$12,000.96

With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 PICK shares reinvest into 0.97 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 103 shares. A rising payout speeds that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less.

PICK Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range

28/100Below its usual yieldvs its 10-yr history
  • PICK yields 1.95% today, at the Nov 10, 2026 close of $55.63.
  • Its own 10-year median is 2.98%, so today’s yield is below its usual level.
Last 5 years: lowest to highest month-end yield
1.37% low5.65% 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 PICK’s Next Dividend? Ex-Date and Pay Date After June 2026

PICK has not declared its next dividend yet. By its usual rhythm of about 182 days between ex-dates, the next ex-date falls around Dec 14, 2026, with the cash around Dec 16, 2026. An estimate, not a promise: only the declaration makes it final. The latest one, $0.542 a share, went ex on Jun 15, 2026 and paid Jun 17, 2026.

  • Ex-dates: about every 182 days (semi-annual)
  • Payment: usually about 2 days after the ex-date

Every payer going ex-dividend this week is on the dividend calendar.

How Often Does PICK Pay?

Against the 10 dividend funds in Asset Management closest to PICK in fund size, PICK’s 1.95% run-rate yield is close to the group’s middle yield of 2.13%. 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.

Does PICK’s payout grow?

To project the snowball, run PICK in the DRIP calculator.

More Dividend Lists and Tools

How this page is built: the rate is the latest regular dividend per share; run-rate yield = rate × payments per year ÷ last close (Nov 10, 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.
