How the yield is calculated
Trailing yield 6.24%: the 11 payments of the last twelve months ($2.42) divided by today's price. Forward yield 7.24%: the latest payment times 12, divided by the same price. Fund sites often quote a 30-day SEC yield instead, which uses the holdings' income in the last month, so it can differ from both.
