Kurv’s Rule 19a-1 notice estimates 81.0% of the distribution paid Oct 8, 2026 was return of capital. Across its notices for distributions paid Nov 6, 2025 to Oct 8, 2026, the estimate is 87.8%. The annual report for the fiscal year to May 31, 2026 puts it at 49.8% of distributions. The year’s notices had estimated 88.2%, so the two were 38.5 points apart. Estimates come before the fund year closes and often change.

ETFIQ, KGLD, income ETFs, data as of Nov 4, 2026. https://etfiq.com/funds/kgld

The payout bar for KGLD, 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.
