This ETF seeks to deliver two times the daily percentage change of Rigetti Computing shares through the use of swap agreements and listed options contracts, making it a non-diversified, leveraged product designed for short-term trading rather than buy-and-hold investing. The fund carries a modest current distribution rate and has an expense ratio of 1.29%. It appeals to experienced traders seeking amplified exposure to Rigetti Computing's price movements on a daily basis, though the leverage structure introduces substantially higher volatility and risk than holding the underlying stock directly.

How Dividend Vision calculates yield and returns

Distribution rate (2.70%) is the latest regular payout annualized by the fund's stated frequency, divided by the last close. Issuers often publish this as “Distribution Rate” on the fact sheet. Trailing-12-month yield (2.70%) is the sum of distributions paid in the last 12 months, split-adjusted, divided by the last close. It lags a recent raise or cut. The 30-day SEC yield (0.61%) is the SEC standardized figure when we have it. An issuer may publish a different SEC or TTM yield using another as-of date or share-class convention. Fund total return uses split-adjusted close with distributions reinvested from the first stored bar on or after inception through the latest bar, compared with the same window on the benchmark. That is what the fund did, not your personal gain/loss. Figures below use Dividend Vision data as of August 29, 2026.

RGTX risks and drawbacks

RGTX's current distribution rate is moderate, not a high-yield payout — the strategy is dividend quality more than maximum income. Payments are annual, so cash flow is lumpy versus a monthly fund. Total return has trailed RGTI over the available window. The deepest 1-year drawdown on record here is 98.3%.

Who may consider RGTX — and who may not

RGTX may suit someone looking for moderate current income with a quality tilt. It is a weaker fit for investors who need monthly cash flow (RGTX pays annual); investors hunting double-digit covered-call yields; investors whose main goal is matching RGTI total return. This is educational context, not a recommendation to buy or sell.
