Is MSTY's dividend sustainable?
Variable incomeMSTY's payout is real cash, but it is variable: over the past twelve months the weekly distribution has swung 445% between its smallest and largest payment, so it should not be treated as a fixed amount. Its NAV is down 87.4% over ten years, so some of the income has come out of principal. This is an analysis of the fund's payment record, not a recommendation or a forecast of future distributions.
