Ok, what am I doing wrong here...
I look at the vanguard tips fund, look at the distributions. I see since 3/23/05, its had six dividends, one ST capital gain and one LT capital gain.
Dividends: .24, .01, .30, .11, .25, .02
ST capital gain: .01
LT capital gain: .01, .02
Price on 3/23/05 = 12.32
Price on 6/22/06 = 11.58
If I bought $50k worth on 3/23/05, I get 4058 shares. On 6/22/06 those are worth $46995.
Total distributions for 4058 shares from 3/23/05 to 6/22/06 is $4005
Net $51,002.
NAV obviously took a beating...but...
That doesnt seem right..stinking ~2% total return over 5 quarters? I'm not seeing that inflation adjustment anywhere in there in either the price or a distribution...what gives?
