That's an excellent and fair question! You're right to ask. On its own, this article doesn't explain the "10%" figure, as it focuses on the monthly calendar.
The title refers to the overall yield target of my portfolio, a theme I've covered in my 28 previous articles. To clarify for new readers, I'm happy to fix this. Which option do you advise?
1/ I add an editor's note at the top explaining the "10%" is the portfolio's target yield, and this article is about making it pay monthly.
2/ I change the title to something like "How I Built a Monthly Payout Cycle for My High-Yield Portfolio."
Thanks for the feedback! It really helps me improve.
That's an interesting compilation, thank you very much. One small correction: in Germany, the main months for annual general meetings are by far May and June. The figures for this year are: April 36, May 165, June 170, July 92 annual general meetings. The high number in June can be explained by the fact that European stock corporations (SE) must hold their annual general meetings by the end of June, while “normal” German stock corporations (AG) have until the end of August to do so. Both apply in cases where the fiscal year ends on December 31.
Thanks a lot for this – that's a really helpful correction and the specific numbers are gold!
I’ll get the article updated with the right info soon. This is definitely a topic I’ll keep refining over time. It's a long-term project, and I will have to refine progressively.
Apologies, but why did you call it a 10% portfolio? Would you mind please explaining? Thanks :)

Option number two seems more legit to me :)
