- Payout ratio does not applyThis is a fund. It distributes income received from its holdings rather than paying out of its own earnings, so a payout ratio is not a meaningful measure.
- Dividend has been cut 6 timesAcross 19 complete years, the annual total fell in 2019, 2022, 2023 and earlier. The most recent reduction was in 2023.
