Growth of $100
Green is what an investor who reinvested every payout would have; red is the price alone. The gap between them is the income. If the red line keeps falling, the payouts are partly your own money coming back.
Was the payout earned?
Over the last year CEPI paid 51.4% but its total return was -1.1%, so none of the payout was earned: the price fell by more than the fund paid out.
| Earned % (3 months) | -61% |
| Earned % (1 year) | -15% |
| Earned % (full history, up to 5 yrs) | 9% |
Earned % = total return ÷ payouts. 100% means every dollar paid out was earned; below 100% means part of it came from the fund's own value. This is an economic measure based on market price, not the tax label on the payout.
