Don't the transaction costs of the dividend payments eat into the return with such small positions and such frequent distributions? I think that would only make sense if you already have the 200k; until then I would act differently.

@stock_strategist_797 Dividend payments generally do not incur any transaction costs.

•@DerMartin Yes, maybe at Trade Republic, but even there you have the costs of currency conversion?

@stock_strategist_797 so I don't know of a neo broker where dividend transactions cost...
Even direct banks like Comdirect have no fees
So I would recommend that you change your custody account as soon as possible if your custody account provider charges transaction fees on dividends received

•@__FunFun__ You're right, thanks - I should have checked that. I only dimly remember paying €1.50 per dividend payment under €15 with Flatex. But if I'm not mistaken, the PFOF should end in 2026 if that matters. Apart from that, it doesn't matter to me, as a high dividend yield is a sign of weak ROIC for me and therefore only makes sense if you want to live off the dividend cash flow - but that's another topic.

@stock_strategist_797 ahh you are Austrian -
That explains it xD
I've often read that you have a really poor selection of (good) brokers...
The thing is, you don't even have to buy high div yield stocks
Blackrock is a great stock, but it would really piss me off if I had to give up €1.50 of my dividend to the broker every year.
Sure, from 15€ quarterly dividend it's free but for that you have to have 3 whole Blackrock shares...
And in my opinion Blackrock is everything but not a bad stock/UN
