With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 CPIX shares reinvest into 25.51 new shares each payment, about 148.2 new shares a year at today’s price and rate, and each new share collects the next payment too. To DRIP one whole new share every payment you need about 4 shares. Raises speed that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less.

CPIX Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range

- Too new to rate — paying since 2026. So there is no usual level to compare today’s yield with yet.
How it works. Each month-end over the last 10 years gives one yield: the regular payment then, times payments a year, over that day’s close. Specials are left out. 50 means today’s yield sits right at its usual level. A lower score means the yield is below its usual level, so the price is high against the payout. A higher score means the yield is above its usual level. On price alone a payer stays between 15 and 85. Steady raisers get a few points back. It reads the past, not the future.
