It could well be ex-dividend time. Current value of shares lose the dividend's value. Hopefully you'll eventually see the dividend show up in your account! That being said, in addition the shares could have lost or gained a bit today. Otherwise, if not ex-dividend time it would be kind of a bummer really...Vincenzo Corleone said:

Portfolio manager John Brynjolfsson says PIMCO Commodity Real Return Plus PCRDX can maintain its dual exposure to commodity prices and inflation-protected securities by using structured notes instead of swaps.
He said the impact on returns of the ruling would be modest...
