Payout risk check

Distribution stabilityElevated risk

QDTY's last 12 distributions were fairly stable (consistency score 85/100).

Its share price moved -19.7% over the past year.

A 38.1% 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.
