This is a dividend reinvestment (DRIP) calculator for QQQI - NEOS Nasdaq-100 High Income ETF. It starts from QQQI's real payment history and models the dividend snowball: every payout buys more shares, and every new share pays its own dividends.
QQQI pays a monthly dividend. Over the last 2.6 years its payout has grown at an average of 61.34% per year (dividend CAGR — compound annual growth rate), while the share price has risen about 2.76% per year. Payout swings this large usually mean the distribution floats with market conditions rather than compounding steadily — worth keeping in mind when projecting far ahead. The calculator is prefilled with those measured rates — change any field to test your own assumptions.

High Yield ETFs
Dividend-growth ETFs like SCHD focus on a payout that rises over time. Covered-call ETFs such as JEPI and JEPQ pay larger monthly distributions instead, and a newer group — YieldMax and similar option-strategy funds — runs quoted yields above 20%, usually with bigger swings in both price and payout.
