Is VOOG's dividend sustainable?
Variable incomeVOOG's payout is real cash, but it is variable: over the past twelve months the quarterly distribution has swung 19% between its smallest and largest payment, so it should not be treated as a fixed amount. The annual distribution has grown about 1.4% a year over the past five years. Its NAV is up 373.8% over ten years, which suggests the income has not been eroding principal. This is an analysis of the fund's payment record, not a recommendation or a forecast of future distributions.
NAV trend (does the payout erode capital?)
10-year rangeUnlike some high-yield funds, VOOG's NAV has held up since inception. The distribution has largely not come at the expense of principal. This is the key number to watch for any income ETF.
