If the fund does not earn sufficient earnings arising from dividends, interest, and net reallocated capital gains, less expense, to cover its distribution payments, then the excess distributions would be considered a return of capital, said GRX. That would be considered only a return of a portion of a shareholder’s investment, and it is not taxed and is essentially a reduction of cost basis.
