How this is computed

Computed by ETFIQ from Direxion’s daily data: each day’s change in shares outstanding times the previous day’s net asset value. Percentages are of net assets at the start of each window. Numbers are net: money in less money out. Every day and month ETFIQ holds for GOIB, back to Jul 2026, is in its flows file.

How this is computed

N-PORT months: money in is sales plus reinvestments; money out is redemptions. Months summed from daily data: money in adds the days money came in; money out adds the days it went out.

N-PORT months are the filed sales plus reinvestments less redemptions. Later months add up the daily data; the Source column names any missing day.

Questions people ask about GOIB

How much has GOIB paid since it launched?
Over the period from its first trade on Jul 29, 2026 to Oct 28, 2026, GOIB paid 4.1% of its starting price in cash distributions, while the price fell 9.3%.
Is GOIB ahead of GOOGL?
Over the period from its first trade on Jul 29, 2026 to Oct 28, 2026, with every distribution reinvested, GOIB returned −5.5% against −3.4% for Alphabet (GOOGL), so a holder was behind it by 2.1 points.
How often does GOIB pay, and how much?
GOIB pays monthly. The latest distribution annualizes to 11.0% at its price on Oct 28, 2026, which is not a promise; the next one can differ.
Is the GOIB distribution return of capital?
Direxion estimates 100% of the distribution paid Oct 16, 2026 was return of capital. That is a tax characterization from the fund's own 19a-1 notice, not a measure of erosion.
When does GOIB next pay a distribution?
GOIB pays monthly. The last distribution went ex on Oct 15, 2026 at $0.209 a share. The next is not declared; on a cadence of about 15 days the ex-date falls near Oct 30, 2026, which is an ETFIQ projection. Payment usually follows the ex-date by 2 days.
What does GOIB cost?
The prospectus expense ratio is 0.97% a year.
How much of GOIB’s distribution is return of capital?
Direxion’s Rule 19a-1 notice estimates 100.0% of the distribution paid Oct 16, 2026 was return of capital. Across its notices for distributions paid Aug 17, 2026 to Oct 16, 2026, the estimate is 71.2%. Estimates come before the fund year closes and often change.

The payout bar for GOIB, redrawn every trading night.

Free to use with attribution for data ETFIQ computes; issuer data stays under its owner's terms. The underlying files are at Open data.

Price change plus every distribution reinvested on the day it went ex-dividend. This is what you actually ended up with, and the only fair basis for comparing with an index.
Cash paid
Distributions over the window as a share of what the fund cost at the start. A measure of cash delivered, not of return: a fund can pay a great deal and still lose money.
Total return minus benchmark total return, in percentage points. A fund can pay 12% a year and still be behind by 10 points if its price fell while the index rose.
Return of capital
The issuer’s own estimate, in a Rule 19a-1 notice, of how much of a distribution was your own money returned. An estimate and a tax characterization, not a measure of erosion.
The fund owns the stocks and sells call options on them, collecting premium and giving up gains above the strike. Synthetic covered call funds hold options instead of the stocks. 0DTE funds sell options that expire the same day.
A fund that pays a coupon and can be called away early, on dates set when it launched. If it is called, you get your money back with the coupon and the run ends. If it is not, it runs on to the next date.
The level the underlying has to stay above for you to be repaid in full. A barrier is not a buffer. A buffer takes the first slice of a fall for you; a barrier takes none of it once it breaks, so below it you take the whole fall rather than only the part past it.
