CEPI returns by period
Total return assumes every dividend is reinvested at the closing price on its ex-dividend date. Price return is the change in the closing price alone. The 3 and 5 year rows also show the yearly rate (CAGR).

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 month | -10.44% | -13.32% | |
| 3 months | -2.46% | -12.27% | |

Did CEPI's payouts keep up with its price?
Over the past year CEPI paid out 33.34% of its starting price in distributions, while its price changed -35.52%. Reinvesting every payment gave a total return of -1.24%. The distributions did not make up for the fall in price, so a holder ended the year with less than they started with, even counting every payment.
Option income funds pay out option premiums and often part of their own assets, so a high yield can come with a falling share price. Total return is the fair measure: it counts both the payouts and the price change. Compare all option income ETFs.

About these numbers
- Calculated by FindETFStock from daily closing prices and ex-dividend amounts reported by Yahoo Finance, starting Sept. 22, 2025.
- Total assets are the fund's net assets as reported by Yahoo Finance; for a fund with several share classes, such as Vanguard's, the figure covers the whole fund. Trading volume is the 3-month average of shares traded per day, times the latest price.
- "5 years" is measured from the first stored close, about five years back; a fund or stock with a shorter history shows "Since first close" instead.
- Returns are before taxes and assume dividends are reinvested at the ex-date close with no costs.
- Past performance does not predict future results. This is not investment advice; see the financial disclaimer and methodology.
