How many EEA shares for a monthly income
Shares and money needed to earn each monthly amount from European Equity Fund dividends alone, at today's rate and price, before tax. Spreading it across several stocks lowers the risk that one cut hits your whole income.

|---|---|---|
| $100 a month | 1,238 | $12,690 |
| $250 a month | 3,093 | $31,703 |
| $500 a month | 6,186 | $63,407 |
| $1,000 a month | 12,372 | $126,813 |

What 100 shares of EEA paid each year
Holding 100 shares, you would have received $7.50 in 2016 and $19.50 in 2025, up 160%, without buying another share. If the dividend kept growing 0.2% a year, its five-year pace, the same 100 shares would pay about $99 in year 10. That is a projection, not a promise.
How the EEA dividend is calculated
Yearly income = shares × $0.97
Each payment = shares × $0.4850
Shares for a monthly income = (monthly goal × 12) ÷ $0.97
The rate is European Equity Fund's current dividend as of Nov 8, 2026. A board can raise, cut or skip a dividend, so check the EEA dividend safety grade before counting on it.
