FNGU Dividend: Yield, Schedule, and What to Expect
Last updated July 2026
Short answer
FNGU's approximate 0.00% yield (as of July 2026) makes it a growth-first, low-yield fund. It tracks NYSE FANG+ Index (3x daily leveraged) and passes through the dividends of its holdings, typically quarterly, minus a 0.95% expense ratio. If income is your goal, look to dedicated dividend funds for more; FNGU is built for total return, not yield. If total return is the goal, the yield matters less than cost and what it holds. Yield is a recent snapshot, not a promise; verify the current figure with Bank of Montreal.
How does the FNGU dividend work?
FNGU holds the companies in NYSE FANG+ Index (3x daily leveraged), collects the dividends they pay, and distributes them to shareholders (usually quarterly), net of its 0.95% fee. The yield you see is the trailing distributions divided by price, so it drifts as both change.
An exchange-traded note that seeks 3x the daily performance of the NYSE FANG+ Index, a roughly 10-stock basket of mega-cap technology and internet names. The leverage resets daily, so over multi-day periods returns compound and can differ substantially from three times the index, especially in choppy markets (volatility decay). Because it is an ETN issued by Bank of Montreal rather than a fund holding stocks, holders also bear the issuer's credit risk. Designed for short-term tactical trading, not long-term investing.
