Payout risk check
YMAG's last 12 distributions were fairly stable (consistency score 87/100).
Its share price moved -26.3% over the past year.
A 51.1% 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.

The fund is non-diversified.
