About DOW Dividends

This page shows the complete DOW dividend payment history, including ex-dates, payment dates, and per-share amounts. The chart above visualizes the trend of dividend payments over time, making it easy to spot increases, decreases, or irregular payouts.

Dow Inc. (DOW) is issued by Dow. Materials-science company spun off from DowDuPont in 2019, operating in Packaging & Specialty Plastics, Industrial Intermediates & Infrastructure, and Performance Materials & Coatings. Quarterly dividend $0.35/share, annual $1.40, forward yield ~4.3%. Cyclical earnings — the petrochemical business swings hard with oil and demand, and the current payout ratio is stretched beyond earnings, making the dividend sensitive to any prolonged downturn.

Open the DOW projection tool to model how reinvesting these dividends would compound over time, or check the Total Return Analyzer to see the real yield after accounting for NAV changes.

DOW dividend history — frequently asked questions

How often does DOW pay dividends?
DOW pays dividends quarterly. The dividend history table and chart above show every payment DOW has made, with the ex-dividend date, payment date, and per-share amount. The ex-date is the cutoff — you must own DOW before the ex-date to receive that payment; buying on or after the ex-date means you get the next one instead.
What does the DOW dividend history chart show?
The chart plots the per-share amount of every dividend DOW has paid, oriented left-to-right from oldest to newest. A rising trend means distributions are growing; a falling trend means they are shrinking. For DOW, the current yield is roughly 6.09% on a trailing twelve-month basis. Pay attention to the shape of the curve — steady growth is a very different risk profile from a jagged curve with big month-to-month swings, which is common for options-income ETFs.
Are DOW dividends qualified or ordinary?
Dividend classification for DOW varies. Most traditional dividend ETFs and stocks produce qualified dividends — taxed at the long-term capital gains rate — but some portion may be non-qualified. Check the year-end 1099-DIV for the exact breakdown.
Why did DOW distributions change so much month to month?
Month-to-month changes in DOW can come from a few sources: timing of the payment relative to the ex-date calendar, special distributions, or shifts in the underlying portfolio. For most non-options-income ETFs, distributions are fairly predictable quarter-over-quarter, with occasional year-end special distributions.
Where does this DOW dividend data come from?
Dividend records are sourced from official issuer dividend calendars and cross-referenced against press releases. Ex-dates and payment dates are the official dates as reported. For YieldMax funds specifically, we also ingest the weekly announcement press releases — that is why YieldMax ticker pages show upcoming announcements.
