Payout risk check
KMLI does not have enough distribution history for a consistency score yet.
Its share price moved -60.1% over the past year.
A 16.3% 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.
