This analysis of TGT demonstrates the power of dividend reinvestment over a 10-year period with a $10,000 initial investment.

Over the selected period, investing $10,000 in TGT would grow to $24,762 with DRIP (147.6%), and $23,830 without DRIP (138.3%).

TGT Dividend Reinvestment Snowball

Milestones on the way

By year 13, the compounding really starts to show. Your total dividends collected reach $25,322 against a total investment of $25,600. At this point, your portfolio is throwing off $5,043 per year in dividends alone.

By year 17, the annual dividend climbs to around your initial contribution. For a starting investment of $10,000, the yearly dividend now sits at approximately $9,959, a powerful “income on autopilot” milestone.

After two decades, cumulative dividends total $90,471 versus $34,000 invested, nearly a 266% recovery of capital purely from income. Yield on cost reaches 49.88%.

At year 25, the income engine takes over. The portfolio’s annual dividend of $44,020 is greater than total contributions to date ($40,000), and cumulative dividends exceed $224,366.

By year 30, the DRIP snowball is in full force. Yearly income reaches $128,187, cumulative dividends total $593,576, and the DRIP portfolio value stands at $781,706, compared with $212,808 if dividends weren’t reinvested.

How we estimate these numbers

We use the latest calculator inputs for TGT, price $97.10, dividend per period $1.14 (4x/year), along with historic growth assumptions: price growth 2.98% and dividend growth 7.37% annually.

We simulate month by month for 30 years. Every month, a $100 contribution is added and converted to shares at that month’s price. Dividends are paid roughly evenly across the year based on the dividend frequency; in the DRIP path, each payout immediately buys additional shares at the then-current price. In the No-DRIP path, dividends accrue as cash. Prices grow using a monthly rate derived from the annual price growth. Dividends per share increase once per year at the annual dividend growth rate.

This model isn’t investment advice; it’s a simple, transparent framework that illustrates how reinvesting dividends can accelerate both income and total return over time.

Projected Future Returns & Dividends for TGT

Based on past 10-year performance, here are TGT growth metrics:
