BOND Dividend Type Payments
Although BOND has no upcoming (meaning, Board-approved and announced) dividends, you can sell covered calls on PIMCO Active Bond Exchange-Traded Fund Exchange-Traded Fund to create 12 extra dividend type payments per year to boost its yield. Let's look at some recent prices (last updated Mon 4:16 PM ET):

BOND Dividend-Like Income Using Covered Calls
With BOND at 91.86, 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% | 2.76 | 0.8 |
| 5% | 4.59 | 1.3 |
| 10% | 9.19 | 2.5 |
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:
