1 = the regular dividend/distribution is not a steady series (it swings year to year), so a compound growth rate is not meaningful. Set when the annual regular dividend’s worst year is <= 75% of the prior or it declined in 3+ of the last 8 years, plus variable funds. The dividend N-Year growth metrics read n/m (blank) for these and drop them from growth screens; the raw growth columns still hold the underlying value.
