For the months of August and September, I received a total of US$83.48 in dividends. No changes to the portfolio.
- Vodafone: US$34.65
- Intel: US$7.88
- Johnson & Johnson: US$21.35
- McDonald's: US$19.60
- McDonald's raised dividends from US$0.70 per share to US$0.77 per share. This is a 10% increase. McDonald's has increased dividends for the past 25 consecutive years.
- Philip Morris raised dividends from US$0.77 per share to US$0.85 per share. This is a 10.4% increase.
By the way, McDonald's is bringing back the juicy Samurai Burger in Singapore.
Give it a try! You know you want it. ^^

Actually, do you count in forex? In SGD term, the dividend may not able to cover forex loss.
With the exchange rate risk with global stocks and low yield compared to Singapore REITs, is it work the investment?
unless the capital gain more than covers the forex loss, then the dividend yield may not justify it.
besides, the tax on dividends eats into it as well.
I was about to ask the same question as Swee Chye, the additional cost on this collection will be the US withhold tax and the broker's handling fee for managing the dividends collection for you (if you are using such a service). Whats the nett amount then ?
One more thing, I believe you are using DBSV for yr US shares; and they have start charging custodian fee for US shares.
Dividend Collection: 1% of Net Dividend, Minimum USD 4, Maximum USD 40
Custody Fee (charged quarterly): SGD 2 per counter per month, capped at SGD 150.00 per quarter.
I guess overall, it still looks ok as his dividend of US$29 per month is more than enough to cover the custodian fee. Not sure about the currency impact though.
Your sg stock yield of 8% is a better choice. you can have $130 per month with 20k
