HYDR Dividend: Yield, Schedule, and What to Expect

Last updated July 2026

Short answer

HYDR's approximate ~2% yield (as of mid-2026) makes it a growth-first, low-yield fund. It tracks Solactive Global Hydrogen v2 Index and passes through the dividends of its holdings, typically quarterly, minus a 0.50% expense ratio. If income is your goal, look to dedicated dividend funds for more; HYDR 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 Global X ETFs (Mirae Asset).

How does the HYDR dividend work?

HYDR holds the companies in Solactive Global Hydrogen v2 Index, collects the dividends they pay, and distributes them to shareholders (usually quarterly), net of its 0.50% fee. The yield you see is the trailing distributions divided by price, so it drifts as both change.

HYDR tracks the Solactive Global Hydrogen Index, a modified market-cap-weighted benchmark of companies tied to hydrogen production, storage, and fuel cells, with single-stock caps near 12%. It charges 0.50%. Unlike a broad clean-energy fund such as ICLN, HYDR is a narrow, pure-play basket focused only on the hydrogen supply chain.

What drives it: the payout of the underlying Solactive Global Hydrogen v2 Index holdings.
