About each fund
XVSP

Over the period from its first trade on Aug 26, 2026 to Nov 4, 2026, XVSP paid 2.7% of its starting value in cash distributions while its price fell 4.6%. With every distribution reinvested, the fund returned −2.2%. Space Exploration Technologies (SPCX) returned −2.7% over the same days, so a holder was about even. At its price on Nov 4, 2026 the latest distribution annualizes to 16.6%, paid periodically. First Trust estimates that 100% of the distribution paid Oct 30, 2026 was a return of capital (its 19a-1 notice). That is a tax label, not a measure of erosion.
