+93.5% in total, which works out to +10.9% a year over the 6 years to 2026-09-29. Both figures assume dividends were reinvested and the fund's own fees were already deducted, so they are what an investor would have kept — before tax.
2022 — its calendar-year return was -3.5% (net of fees, dividends reinvested). Its best year was 2021 (+21.5%).
-13.7%, from a peak on 2022-04-20 to a trough on 2022-09-30. From that trough it took 259 days (about 8.5 months) to climb back to the earlier peak.
Over the last 12 months it distributed 8.11% of its share price (as of 2026-09-29). That is a past distribution, not a promise of future income, and it is already counted in every return figure on this page.
It does not say JEPI is a good or bad fund, and it is not a forecast. Returns above are history: they already include dividends and already exclude the fund's own fees. A drawdown of -13.7% means an investor who bought at the peak would have watched that much value disappear before it recovered — how long that takes is the part most tables leave out.
