How the yield is calculated
Trailing yield 3.32%: the 1 payments of the last twelve months ($1.27) divided by today's price. Forward yield 3.32%: the latest payment times 1, 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.
