Buying on or after the ex-dividend date means missing the month’s payout, while positioning before the record date secures it.
ETF distributions for cash flow, the mix of cash funds and covered-call equity strategies provides a balance between income and market exposure.
The range of per-unit amounts across the S&P 500 and S&P/TSX 60 products also reflects underlying index volatility and option-premium dynamics in September.
Vanguard Canada payouts were confirmed earlier in September, and Purpose September distributions were also announced for a range of yield-focused funds, underscoring a crowded calendar for ETF income.
Scan each fund’s prospectus and consider tax treatment, especially for cross-border USD listings where withholding can change dollar amounts received.
Liquidity and bid-ask spreads can also widen around month-end for smaller tickers, making limit orders prudent.
