Where the marker sits left of the bar's end, the fund paid out more than it made.
Every fund here is measured against SPY, so they can be compared with each other on the one thing that separates them: what a holder finished with against simply holding SPY.
The rest of the method
Cash paid is not that. A fund can lead this category on cash and sit at the bottom of this table, which is the whole reason the measure exists. The list sorts one published number, with no scoring or weighting. Every fund ETFIQ covers in this category is eligible, closed funds included.
