HYTR cuts monthly dividend by 46% to $0.0579

The Counterpoint High Yield Trend ETF set an ex-dividend date of 16 October 2026 for a regular cash dividend of $0.0579 per share, down from $0.1073 paid on 18 September 2026. That is a 46% reduction in a single monthly distribution.

Holders on record as of the ex-date receive the lower payout. For the short side, short sellers must make a payment in lieu, covering the dividend on any borrowed shares, but with short interest at just 0.5% of free float and a cost to borrow of 1.5%, the short position here is minimal and the dividend liability is negligible for that cohort.
