Dividend ETF Return Matrix

Headline yield numbers lie. A fund paying 12% distributions can still lose you money if the share price falls faster than the income arrives. This tool shows every major dividend and income ETF's actual outcome: yield, NAV change, and true total return — both with and without dividend reinvestment.

📊
50+ funds side by side
JEPI, SCHD, QYLD, MSTY, TSLY, NVDY and dozens more — ranked by total return, yield, or NAV change so you can instantly spot the outliers.
🔄
DRIP vs. cash — the real math
Reinvesting into a declining NAV compounds your exposure to a shrinking asset. The matrix shows both scenarios so you can see which funds actually reward reinvestment.
📉
NAV erosion made visible
Some funds pay generous distributions while quietly destroying principal. The matrix separates income from price return so the full picture is unavoidable.
🎯
Any time period
