Of course, DRI’s price could drop about the same $1.50 estimated amount or more.My upside estimate of $1.50, however, is about half the past-year price gain from DRI.DHT.U.TO DividendDRI has paid variable Quarterly dividends and a special annual dividend since April 20, 2021. DRI’s recently declared Q dividend, of $0.08 is payable January 29, 2024 to shareholders of record on December 28th. The forward-looking $0.32 annual dividend yields 4.00% at Thursday’s share price.DHT.U.TO ReturnsPutting it all together, we add the estimated forward-looking annual dividend of $0.32 to my estimated price upside of $1.50 and find a $1.82 gross gain.At Thursday’s $8.00 closing price, a little under $1000 would buy 125 shares.A $10 broker fee (if charged), paid half at purchase and half at sale, might cost us about $0.08 per share.Subtracting that likely $0.08 brokerage cost from the $1.82 estimated gross gain per share produces a net gain of $1.74 X 125 shares = $217.50 or a 21.75% net gain.You might choose to pounce on DRI Healthcare Trust shares. DRI is a recently founded pharmaceutical royalty trust in Canada. Furthermore, the estimated $40.00 dividend income from $1k invested is 5 times greater than Thursday’s price of a single share.The fate of DRI’s ongoing future price and dividend is yet to be known.Remember the true value of any stock is best realized through personal ownership of shares.More By This Author:Current Analysis: GSK Plc
