What's included in /finance

Full dividend history

Every historical dividend event for the stock — not just the most recent one.

Ex-date and pay date

Both critical dates for income investors: the ex-dividend date (to qualify) and the payment date.

Amount per share

Gross dividend amount per share, in the stock's native currency.

Trailing 12-month yield

Calculated dividend yield based on the current price — returned alongside the history.

Pairs with /stock/quote

Combine with the live price to compute yield dynamically rather than relying on a stale static figure.
