ZTR: A Fund That Just Returns Your Money

Virtus Total Return Fund has a dividend yield of 15% but has underperformed with a total annual return of only 0.1% over two decades. The fund's income has consistently decreased, with dividend payments dropping from $2.16 to 96 cents per share annually. The fund's high leverage and dividend payments make it difficult for the fund to recover losses, and it has consistently traded at a discount.
