This benchmark is composed of common stocks from companies renowned for their generous dividend payouts. VYM offers investors a straightforward way to gain exposure to equities expected to deliver higher-than-average dividend income. The fund adheres to a passively managed, full-replication strategy, meaning it seeks to hold all the securities found within its target index.
Key Metrics
Distribution Yield
2.43%
The annual dividend as a percentage of the share price. A 3% yield is about $3 of dividends a year for every $100 invested at today's price.Annualized Distribution
$3.9180
The most recent payment scaled to a full year by how often it's paid. A $0.25 quarterly dividend annualizes to $1.00.Frequency
Q Quarterly
How often the dividend is paid: Q = quarterly (4x a year), M = monthly, S = semi-annual, A = annual.Rank Score
57.2
Our 0-100 house score blending yield, payout safety, growth and momentum. Higher means a stronger profile on those factors in our model — a research score, not advice or a recommendation to buy.RSI (14)
55
Relative Strength Index (0-100), a price-momentum gauge. Above 70 is often called 'overbought', below 30 'oversold'. A technical signal, not a dividend metric.52-Week Range
$132.90 – $161.17
The lowest and highest price over the past year — shows where today's price sits in its recent range.Payout Ratio
n/a
The share of GAAP earnings paid out as dividends. Lower leaves more cushion; above 100% means paying out more than the company earns. It shows n/a for BDCs, REITs and funds, which pay out of cash flow / net investment income rather than GAAP earnings, so this ratio doesn't apply.Years Paying
19
How many years of payments we have on record. This can understate very long histories where our data doesn't reach far enough back.S.A.F.E. Dividend Read
S
Sustainable Payout
Not meaningful for a fund — assess NAV / distribution coverage.
A
Payment Track Record
19 years of dividend payments.
F
Fair Valuation
Price-to-book unavailable.
E
Oversold Reading
Not in the oversold range. RSI 55.
