$10k income snapshot
What could $10,000 in MORT do?
Using the current trailing 12-month yield, this is the simple cashflow picture: one position, one estimated average income stream, and one more step toward your freedom number.

DRIP framing
At today's price, $10,000 buys about 994.0 shares. If the estimated distributions were reinvested for a year at the same price, DRIP could add roughly 130.5 shares before any market movement.
Think of each $10k as a cashflow block. Stack enough blocks, diversify the roles, and the portfolio starts taking over small monthly bills before it ever replaces a full paycheck.

About MORT
The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its total assets in securities that comprise the Fund’s benchmark index. For purposes of this policy, the term “assets” means net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes. The Mortgage REIT Index is comprised of publicly traded U.S. real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) that derive at least 50% of their revenues from (or, where applicable, have at least 50% of their assets related to) mortgage-related activity.
A mortgage REIT makes loans to developers and owners of properties and invests primarily in mortgages and similar real estate interests, and includes companies or trusts that are primarily engaged in the purchasing or servicing of commercial or residential mortgage loans or mortgage-related securities. The Mortgage REITs Index may include small-, medium- and large-capitalization companies.
As of December 31, 2025, the Mortgage REITs Index included 25 securities of companies with a market capitalization range of between approximately $263 million and $15.3 billion and a weighted average market capitalization of $5.9 billion. The Fund’s 80% investment policy is non-fundamental and may be changed without shareholder approval upon 60 days’ prior written notice to shareholders.The Fund, using a “passive” or indexing investment approach, attempts to approximate the investment performance of the Mortgage REITs Index by investing in a portfolio of securities that generally replicates the Mortgage REITs Index.
Unlike many investment companies that try to “beat” the performance of a benchmark index, the Fund does not try to “beat” the Mortgage REITs Index and does not take temporary defensive positions that are inconsistent with its investment objective of seeking to replicate the Mortgage REITs Index. The Fund is classified as a non-diversified fund and, therefore, may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer. The Fund may concentrate its investments in a particular industry or group of industries to the extent that the Mortgage REITs Index concentrates in an industry or group of industries.
As of December 31, 2025, the financials sector represented a significant portion of the Fund.
