Within Diversified Fund, where we track 226 names, the median yield is 3.50% — putting RDVI 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.
Its 2-year run of dividend increases ranks 426th out of the 553 names in our data with an active growth streak.
What the numbers mean
RDVI 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.
