AI Dividend Type Payments
Although AI has no upcoming (meaning, Board-approved and announced) dividends, you can sell covered calls on C3.ai, Inc. Class A to create 12 extra dividend type payments per year to boost its yield. Let's look at some recent prices (last updated Tue 4:16 PM ET):

AI Dividend-Like Income Using Covered Calls
With AI at 14.02, here's a table showing how big the annual "dividend" (i.e. total annual call premium received) would need to be to attain 3%, 5%, and 10% annual yields. Also shown is the equivalent number of cents/day necessary to achieve each yield:
| Annual Yield | Annual Premium | Cents/Day |
|---|---|---|
| 3% | 0.42 | 0.1 |
| 5% | 0.70 | 0.2 |
| 10% | 1.40 | 0.4 |
So now we need to find out of the money covered calls that pay at least the prescribed cents/day amount of time premium. That will generate income and, because they are out of the money, leave room for some upside potential on the stock. Here are some examples:
