Thanks.
Q: I only use DLR / DLR.U for Norbert's Gambit, but didn't realize that they pay a distribution until you mentioned some fairly hefty yields in a recent reply.
And sure enough, the TMX website shows yields of 6.7% for DLR and 9.5% for DLR.U, but quarterly distributions of only $0.111 and $0.082 resp., resulting in an annual yield of only ~ 3% (with minor quarterly fluctuations).
Could you please explain this discrepancy?
