How Dividend Vision calculates yield and returns

Distribution rate (3.44%) uses provider-reported trailing yield; special policy and denominator follow the provider. Issuer rates can use a different denominator and date, including ex-date NAV. Trailing 12-mo distributions (incl. capital gains) (3.38%) is the sum of split-adjusted cash distributions with ex-dates in the last 12 months, divided by the published price. It lags a recent raise or cut. Total return uses split-adjusted close with distributions reinvested on the ex-dividend date (a modeling convention, not the cash-settlement date) from the first stored bar on or after inception through the latest bar, compared with the same window on the benchmark. That is the security's total return, not your personal gain/loss.

EADIX risks and drawbacks

EADIX's current distribution rate is moderate, not a high-yield payout — the strategy is dividend quality more than maximum income. Total return has trailed SPY over the available window. The deepest 1-year drawdown on record here is 11.1%.

Who may consider EADIX — and who may not

EADIX may suit someone looking for a high Distribution Safety Score, moderate current income with a quality tilt. It is a weaker fit for investors hunting double-digit covered-call yields; investors whose main goal is matching SPY total return. This is educational context, not a recommendation to buy or sell.
