About each fund
CSHI

Over the year to Nov 4, 2026, CSHI paid 4.8% of its starting value in cash distributions while its price fell 0.1%. With every distribution reinvested, the fund returned +4.8%. 1-3 month T-bills (BIL) returned +3.7% over the same days, so a holder was ahead by 1.1 pts. At its price on Nov 4, 2026 the latest distribution annualizes to 5.0%, paid monthly. NEOS estimates that 24% of the distribution paid Oct 16, 2026 was a return of capital (its 19a-1 notice).
