Traton’s price reached that an all-time high on April 15, 2024.If shares trade in the range of $30.00 to $35.00 this next year, the recent $32.50 share price might grow to $33.55. Of course, TRATF’s share price could also drop about the same $1.05 estimated amount or more.My $1.05 price upside estimate is based on the average of Traton’s one-year price gains over the past 4 years.TRATF DividendTraton SE has paid increasing annual dividends since July 2021. The company’s most recent Annual dividend of $1.61 was declared on February 19th for shareholders of record on April 14th and the payout was made on June 18th.The estimated annual dividend of Thursday’s closing price.TRATF ReturnsPutting it all together, a $2.66 estimated annual gross gain per share shows up by adding Traton’s annual $1.61 dividend to the estimated price upside of $1.05, totals that $2.66 gross gain.A little over $1000 buys 31 shares at Thursday’s $32.50 share price.A $10 broker fee (if charged), collected half at purchase and half at sale, might take about $0.3225 per share out of the $2.66 gross gain to give us a net gain of $2.3378 X 31 shares = $72.46 for about a 7.2% estimated net gain for the year.Furthermore, the $49.60 annual estimated dividend from $1k invested is over 1.5 times more than the $32.50 single share price.
