Contributed −$70 per $10k to VAF over the last 3 months.
Negative because the fund's unit price falls by the payout on each ex-date, and the return in this card is the quoted price change. That cash goes to unit holders, so it is not a loss — it is just no longer in the price. It is why the holdings above add up to more than the fund return.
