LAPR 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).
| Period | Since | Total return | Price return |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 month | +0.50% | -0.06% | |
| 3 months | +1.27% | -0.41% | |
| 6 months | +2.56% | -0.81% | |

Did LAPR's payouts keep up with its price?
Over the past year LAPR paid out 6.01% of its starting price in distributions, while its price changed -0.16%. Reinvesting every payment gave a total return of +6.03%. The share price fell, but the payouts more than made up for it.
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 April 1, 2024.
- 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.
