53 out of 100 (Caution). It averages each fund's Distribution Safety Score, weighted by its share of the portfolio's projected income. It is a rules-based estimate of how dependable the payouts are, not a guarantee.
How much income does Metals And Real Estate pay?
The holdings' current distribution rates blend to about 21.2% a year at the listed weights. Distribution rates change as funds raise, cut or vary their payouts.
