About each fund
FIYY

Over the period from its first trade on May 5, 2026 to Nov 4, 2026, FIYY paid 1.7% of its starting value in cash distributions while its price fell 3.9%. With every distribution reinvested, the fund returned −2.2%. 20+ Year Treasury (TLT) returned −2.0% over the same days, so a holder was about even. At its price on Nov 4, 2026 the latest distribution annualizes to 2.0%, paid weekly. GraniteShares estimates that 79% of the distribution paid Jul 7, 2026 was a return of capital (its 19a-1 notice).
