Previous weeks

How detection works: we compare each new regular payment with the most common amount of the previous six, ignore recurring supplementals and special dividends, and require a 0.1% move for stable payers or 5% for payers whose amount varies every period. Open-end ETFs are excluded because their distributions vary by design. Not investment advice.
