What the data shows. These are observations, not recommendations — see the disclaimer at the foot of the page.

  • Yield is above the market median4.35% against a median of 2.92% across US dividend payers.
  • 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 3 timesAcross 14 complete years, the annual total fell in 2020, 2021, 2022. The most recent reduction was in 2022.
  • Raised for 3 consecutive yearsDerived from split-adjusted payment history and approximate; treat it as a relative signal rather than a certified record.
  • Pays monthlyPayments arrive twelve times a year rather than the usual four, which suits income being drawn rather than reinvested.
