CDPI
Over the period from its first trade on Jul 14, 2026 to Nov 4, 2026, CDPI paid 1.5% of its starting value in cash distributions while its price rose 0.1%. With every distribution reinvested, the fund returned +1.6%. At its price on Nov 4, 2026 the latest distribution annualizes to 8.0%, paid monthly. Columbia estimates that 76% of the distribution paid Oct 5, 2026 was a return of capital (its 19a-1 notice). That is a tax label, not a measure of erosion.
GRNI's own stocks, without the options (from its filed holdings, rebalanced at each filing; latest Jul 31, 2026) returned −0.8% over the same days, so a holder was behind by 0.8 pts.
