All distributions are included, so a year containing a year-end capital gains distribution will be higher than its income alone. Fund distributions vary with the income of the underlying holdings and are not a fixed payout. The current year is omitted until it is complete, and a dash marks a year whose source payment records are incomplete. Figures are summed from payment history and may differ from fund-reported distribution schedules.
