This 3 Stock Portfolio Pays Monthly Dividends

While most stocks pay quarterly dividends, investors can still construct a portfolio that allows them to get paid monthly. The first stock pays dividends in January, April, July, and October. The second stock pays out in February, May, August, and November. And finally, the third stock will pay its dividend in March, June, September, and December. So, investors can reap steady monthly paydays with just a little positioning. A combination of Coca-Cola KO, Caterpillar CAT, and Exxon Mobil XOM – shares would provide precisely the blend needed for this portfolio. Caterpillar Powers Data Centers Ca

Exxon’s (XOM) Profit Missed. So Why Is The Dividend Getting Stronger?

ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM) reported second-quarter 2026 results on July 31, and the headline number disappointed. Adjusted earnings came in at $3.52 per share, short of the $3.60 analysts expected, even though that figure was up sharply from a year earlier. Reported earnings were $14.5 billion, or $3.48 per share. But the company also generated $23.6 billion in cash from operations and $17.2 billion in free cash flow, enough to fund $9.4 billion in shareholder distributions with room to spare. The miss made headlines. The cash didn't miss anything.Exxon's (XOM) Profit Missed. So Why Is The Dividend

Exxon Stock Jumps 3.3% as Oil Supply Fears Return

This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM), the oil-and-gas giant with operations stretching from the Permian to Guyana and Qatar, reported a monster $14.5 billion second-quarter profit as its shares jumped roughly 3.3% Monday morning. Adjusted earnings landed at $14.7 billion, or $3.52 per share, backed by $23.6 billion of operating cash flow. But earnings are only half the story. Oil is heating up again. Brent crude climbed nearly 2% after Iran put conditions on reopening the Strait of Hormuz, throwing fresh uncertainty over a critical artery for global energy supplies.

ExxonMobil (XOM) Stock Could Be A Bargain On Cash Flow Despite Rich Earnings

Track your investments for FREE with Simply Wall St, the portfolio command center trusted by over 7 million individual investors worldwide. ExxonMobil Holdings has delivered a very strong run for shareholders over the past five years, yet valuation checks still suggest the stock trades at a discount to its intrinsic value estimate based on a Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) approach and on earnings multiples. The stock has returned 247.7% over the past five years, which puts current buyers in the position of weighing recent gains against what still screens as a discount to estimated intrinsic value.

ExxonMobil Holdings Corporation (XOM) vs. Chevron Corporation (CVX): Trump Attacks the Oil Giants for Making “Too Much Money”

On August 3, 2026, President Trump accused ExxonMobil Holdings Corporation (NYSE:XOM) and Chevron Corporation (NYSE:CVX) of making "too much money" off high fuel prices just three days after both companies reported blowout second-quarter earnings fueled by the ongoing Iran war. Trump told reporters, "Chevron, too much money. ExxonMobil, too much. Too much money," demanding the companies "give some of that back to the public." Why Record Profits Just Became a Political Problem Chevron Corporation (NYSE:CVX)'s earnings soared nearly 400% to $12 billion, and ExxonMobil Holdings Corporation (NYSE:

The combination of sharply higher profits and US$9.4 billion returned to investors through dividends and repurchases in the quarter highlights ExxonMobil's current focus on converting strong cash generation into direct shareholder payouts.

How the page works

How to read the score

The score shows direction

It describes the weighted balance of qualifying headlines. A score of 50 can mean balanced news or that there is not enough evidence; the status label explains which.

Confidence is separate

Confidence measures depth, source breadth, direct relevance, freshness and agreement. It does not rise merely because the tone is extreme.

Price is confirmation

Weekly price response, trend and fair-value position test whether the market is accepting or rejecting the news. They never rewrite the news score.

What the page does

It measures news already published. It is not a forecast, recommendation or price target.

Evidence context
