Decrease in Estimated Annual Dividend

The Estimated Annual Dividend for the FiveTwenty portfolio decreased week over week. The decrease was caused by LEG cutting its quarterly dividend from $0.46 to $0.05 per share starting with the Q2 2024 payout.

What does this mean for our position in LEG? With this latest dividend cut the yield for LEG has dropped to 1.43%, which is far below our desired target. Therefore, we will be looking to close or position in LEG in the coming week.
