Declaration notes

Distribution declarations, annotated as they land

When a supported fund declares a payout, its numbers are placed against the fund’s own history — change vs the prior payout, vs the trailing average, ROC estimates — and material declarations get a short note. Every figure is computed from issuer-published data.
