weekly DividendsAnnual Yield Calculations
Both figures start from the same per-period rate: the average of the last 3 distributions ($0.06) divided by the current price ($12.91) = 0.481% per week. The non-DRIP yield annualizes it simply; the DRIP yield compounds it over 52 periods.
WeeklyYield™ Actual Performance
How YTD & performance are calculated: YTD returns shown across WeeklyYield are price-only, using split-adjusted close-to-close prices from the first trading day of the calendar year to the latest close — the same method your brokerage uses. Dividends are tracked separately in the yield figures above. "Actual Non-DRIP" and "Actual DRIP" add distributions back in to show total return since the earliest price we have on record (2026-02-27 at $25.13), using the same 21 distributions in both — non-DRIP collects them as cash, DRIP buys shares at each ex-date close. For SLVX, DRIP trails non-DRIP: because NAV fell over this window, shares bought with early distributions ended up worth less than the cash would have been. See full methodology →

Frequently Asked Questions About SLVX
SLVX pays weekly dividends. Its most recent ex-dividend date was 2026-07-27 with a pay date of 2026-07-28.
SLVX has paid an average of $0.0621 per share across its most recent 3 distributions. Its latest distribution was $0.0633 per share.
SLVX's current annualized yield is 25.00%. This is calculated as the average of its last 3 distributions ($0.0621) divided by the current share price of $12.91, annualized over 52 periods. Reinvesting those distributions (DRIP) compounds the same rate: (1 + rate)^52 − 1.
Covered call and option-income ETF distributions vary week to week. SLVX's actual total return figures on the fund's WeeklyYield page show total return net of NAV changes; high distribution rates can coincide with NAV decline, so investors should compare yield to actual total return before drawing conclusions. This is educational information, not investment advice.
Option-income ETF distributions are generally treated as ordinary income or return of capital, depending on the fund's structure and the underlying options strategy. For SLVX's exact tax character, refer to the fund issuer's 19a-1 notices and year-end 1099-DIV. This is not tax advice.
