Payout risk check

Distribution stabilityElevated risk

DLY's last 12 distributions were very stable (consistency score 100/100).

Its share price moved -10.6% over the past year.

A 10.1% yield paired with a falling share price is the classic sign of NAV erosion: part of each distribution may be a return of your own capital rather than income the fund earned, and the share price can keep grinding lower even while the headline yield looks attractive.

This is a rule-based screen computed from public data, not a rating or a recommendation. Read our guide to yield traps for what the signals mean.
