Fund Details
Investment Thesis
High yield alone is a trap; high yield from companies that have raised payouts for a decade straight is a strategy. PEY's double screen — achiever status first, then yield — delivers 4.3% monthly from the likes of Altria, UPS and the utilities, and +20% this year as value-income re-rated. Two decades of fund history show the combination compounding through every regime that pure-yield funds didn't survive.
Who It's For
Income investors who want 4%+ paid monthly from dividend-growers rather than yield traps — the screened version of reaching for yield.
