RYLD dividend snapshot
Variable distributionAs of Jul 10, 2026, RYLD yields about 11.53%, having distributed $1.85 per share over the trailing twelve months.
Its most recent payment was $0.1618 per share, which went ex-dividend on Jun 22, 2026 and paid on Jun 25, 2026.
Because RYLD pays a variable monthly distribution, the amount changes every period — its recent payments have ranged from $0.1475 to $0.1618 per share. Treat the headline yield as a record of what was paid, not a promise of future income.
As a covered-call income ETF, RYLD pairs an above-average yield with limited share-price upside, because option premium is exchanged for capped growth — so set the price-growth input in the calculator above conservatively rather than assuming the yield compounds untouched.

About RYLD
RYLD applies a covered-call strategy to the small-cap Russell 2000, paying a high monthly distribution. Small-cap volatility tends to make its yield high and its price path bumpy.
RYLD is a covered-call income etf from Global X that distributes monthly. Because dividend investing is about both income and the growth of that income, the calculator above lets you model three things independently for RYLD: the starting yield, how fast the dividend grows each year, and how fast the share price appreciates. That separation matters most for covered-call funds, where a high headline yield often pairs with little or no price growth — so the "stock price growth" input should usually be modest.
How to use the RYLD calculator
- Replace the pre-filled yield with RYLD’s current dividend yield from your broker or the fund’s page.
- Set your initial investment and monthly contribution.
- Estimate the dividend growth rate and price growth rate. For a covered-call income etf these can differ a lot — be realistic rather than optimistic.
- Choose your dividend tax rate and whether to reinvest (DRIP), then read the projected value, dividends received, and yield on cost.
The full math, including how the money-weighted return is computed, is on the methodology page.
RYLD dividend calculator FAQ
- How does this RYLD dividend calculator work?
- It runs a month-by-month projection: each month it adds your contribution, pays a dividend based on the yield, optionally reinvests it (DRIP), then applies price growth. The page loads pre-filled with RYLD's current yield (about 11.53% as of Jul 10, 2026); adjust the dividend-growth, price-growth, and tax assumptions to fit your own outlook.
- What yield should I use for RYLD?
- As of Jul 10, 2026, RYLD's dividend yield was about 11.53% ($1.85 per share over the trailing year). Yields move with the share price, so use the current figure from your broker rather than a fixed number. For a covered-call fund the headline yield is high but usually comes with little or no price growth, so set the price-growth input realistically.
- How often does RYLD pay dividends, and when?
- Global X Russell 2000 Covered Call ETF pays a monthly (varies) dividend; its most recent payment was $0.1618 per share, ex-dividend Jun 22, 2026. This calculator compounds monthly and projects annual totals, so it works the same regardless of the payment schedule — the cadence just affects when cash actually lands in your account.
- Is the RYLD projection a guarantee?
- No. It is an educational projection based on the assumptions you enter, held constant. Real dividends can rise, be cut, or stop, and prices fluctuate. Use it to compare scenarios, not to predict returns, and never rely on a single calculator for an investment decision.
