How QBY's dividend compares
Across the 584 dividend stocks and ETFs DivTrkr tracks, the median yield is 3.75%. QBY's 140.03% is 136.28 percentage points above that median, ranking 20th of 584 by yield.
Within Diversified Fund, where we track 108 names, the median yield is 42.66% — putting QBY above its sector. A yield well above the sector norm is worth a second look: it can signal a depressed share price rather than a generous payout.
What the numbers mean
QBY pays monthly, which suits investors who want dividend income to line up with monthly living expenses rather than arriving in quarterly lumps.
Whether these payments are taxed at the lower qualified rate or as ordinary income depends on how long you hold the shares and what kind of company pays them. See the qualified vs. ordinary dividend rules.
