Illustrative, not a live yield. Yield at price = our verified annual dividend per share ÷ the example price. It is not calculated from the TradingView price, which we cannot read. Your yield depends on the price you actually pay.
How the math works
Preferred dividends are paid on the stated amount ($100 per share for the listed issues), not on the market price. So income per share = rate × $100. Your share price only changes what the shares cost you and the yield you get. Shares needed = target annual income ÷ (rate × $100), rounded up.
Current rate and schedule details: STRC (rate and schedule are set by Strategy) and SATA and SATS (Strive). Dividends are declared at the issuer's discretion, rates can change, and payments are not guaranteed.

Start with the Panama guide
Panama's Pensionado needs a lifetime pension of at least B/.1,000 a month. Dividends alone don't count, but a lifetime pension or annuity from a private entity may qualify. See which Panama routes might work and how territorial tax treats foreign dividends.
