How To Earn $500 A Month From Casey's Stock Ahead Of Q4 Earnings
Casey's General Stores, Inc. (NASDAQ:CASY) will release its fourth-quarter financial results after the closing bell on Monday, June 9. Analysts expect the company to report quarterly earnings at $1.95 per share, down from $2.34 per share in the year-ago period. Casey's projects quarterly revenue of $3.95 billion, compared to $3.6 billion a year earlier, according to data from Benzinga Pro. On April 11, Keybanc analyst Bradley Thomas initiated coverage of Casey's with an Overweight rating and announced a price target of $500. With the recent buzz around Casey's, some investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company's dividends too. As of now, Casey's offers an annual dividend yield of 0.45%, which is a quarterly dividend amount of 50 per share ($2.00 a year). To figure out how to earn $500 monthly from Casey's, we start with the yearly target of $6,000 ($500 x 12 months). Next, we take this amount and divide it by Casey's $2.00 dividend: $6,000 / 2.00 = 3,000 shares. So, an investor would need to own approximately $1,337,070 worth of Casey's, or 3,000 shares to generate a monthly dividend income of $500. Assuming a more conservative goal of $100 monthly ($1,200 annually), we do the same calculation: $1,200 / $2.00 = 600 shares, or $267,414 to generate a monthly dividend income of $100.

The dividend yield is calculated by dividing the annual dividend payment by the current stock price. As the stock price changes, the dividend yield will also change. For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and its current price is $50, its dividend yield would be 4%. However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield would decrease to 3.33% ($2/$60). Conversely, if the stock price decreases to $40, the dividend yield would increase to 5% ($2/$40). Further, the dividend payment itself can also change over time, which can also impact the dividend yield. If a company increases its dividend payment, the dividend yield will increase even if the stock price remains the same. Similarly, if a company decreases its dividend payment, the dividend yield will decrease.

Worcestershire losing millions to poor mobile coverage
Poor mobile phone coverage in Worcestershire is costing hundreds of millions of pounds in lost productivity, a survey has news comes after a project, which began in October, saw signal trackers fitted to bin lorries as a means of mapping the county's mobile signal found more than 10% of postcodes in the county did not have useable coverage, contradicting the official Ofcom data, based on reports by mobile phone operators, which says the figure is 0.01%.The Conservative MP for Bromsgrove, Bradley Thomas, said he would be calling for a parliamentary debate on the issue, which is costing the county £226m a year, councillors were told on Friday. "Good, strong, stable mobile phone coverage is as essential to connectivity as any other utility," said Thomas."We've got to up the ante on the mobile phone companies to make sure that they're aware that the connection in Worcestershire is not as good as they say it is." Councillor Adam Kent, cabinet member for the economy, said "countless" residents had raised the issue with him."We've seen the investment in Worcestershire across broadband, where we've been pushing to get gigabyte coverage for everybody – but at the same time, the mobile phone network seems to have dropped off a cliff," he said."We've got to get the actual data that the mobile phone companies are saying is correct, and then really… we've got to lobby government to take the action to get this improved." George Gibson. from Streetwave, which provided the technology to collect the data, said it was a UK-wide problem."Our findings highlight the significant gap between modelled data and actual user experience," he said. "People deserve to know the truth about their mobile coverage, and this research gives us the evidence to push for real improvements." 'Imperative to effect change' Kent said the council was working with operators, but there was a limit to what it could do."What we've got now with this data is the evidence," he said. "We've now got to take the evidence to government and we've got to say something is wrong here."It's absolutely imperative that data now is used to effect change."Thomas confirmed he would call for a parliamentary debate on the issue."I'm going to be playing my role to hold the government, mobile phone companies and the regulator to account to make sure that the service gets better."
