But according to my backtesting by using a special type of gold trade, I would have seen a 141% gain in just a week. It happened again in March. Gold nudged up 1.2%. This time? A 104% overnight gain. And in June? A 1% gold move turned into a 74% gain in two weeks. Granted, there would have been smaller wins and those that did not work out, but you see, there's a reason I'm telling all my friends to hold off from buying gold or regular gold stocks right now. There's a more lucrative way to play the gold market as we enter a new breakout period. It's all about catching what I call "Acceleration Cycles."And if you’d like to get your hands on this, here you go, the complete breakdown.1/23/2024Quarterly$0.8450+$0.05506.96%2.03%3/6/20243/7/20243/28/202410/24/2023quarterly$0.79 - 2.18%12/6/202312/7/202312/28/20239/7/2023Quarterly$0.79 - 2.14%9/7/20239/29/20239/29/20234/24/2023Quarterly$0.79-$0.03754.53%1.87%6/8/20236/9/20236/30/20231/24/2023Quarterly$0.8275+$0.094512.89%1.9%3/9/20233/10/20233/31/2023This table shows Canadian National Railway's dividend history, including payout amounts, yield, dividend changes, and key dates.
