XRX’s all-time high reached $168.45 in May 1999.If shares trade in the range of $9.00 to $12.00 this next year, the recent $10.04 XRX share price might grow to $10.60. Of course, XRX’s share price could also drop about the same $0.56 estimated amount or more.My $0.56 price upside estimate is based on the median of XRX’s one-year price targets estimated by four analysts tracking the stock for brokers.XRX DividendXerox Holdings has paid variable quarterly dividends since January 1985. The company’s most recent Q dividend of $0.25 was declared August 1st for shareholders of record September 30th and the payout is due October 31st.The $1.00 A dividend yields 9.96%, as of today’s (Thursday’s) closing price.XRX ReturnsPutting it all together, a $1.56 estimated annual gross gain per share shows up by adding XRX’s annual $1.00 dividend to the estimated price upside of $0.56, totaling that $1.56 gross gain.Slightly over $1000 buys 100 shares at Thursday’s $10.04 price.A $10 broker fee (if charged), taken half at purchase and half at sale, might take about $0.10 per share out of the $1.56 gross gain to give us a net gain of $1.46 X 100 shares = $146.00 for about a 14.5% estimated net gain for the year.Furthermore, the $99.60 annual dividend paid from $1k invested is nearly 10 times more than the $10.04 single share price. By these numbers, XRX might be an ideal dividend dog.You might choose to pounce on Xerox Holdings It is a 121 year-old Quarterly dividend-paying Connecticut-based MFP fabricator with a 14-year annual dividend record.The exact track of XRX’s future price and dividend will entirely be determined by market action and company finances.More By This Author:Current Report: United Microelectronics Corporation
