Hello, I am in the process of trying to calculate the yield of each type of fund I am looking at – particularly FNILX vs FXAIX – I can see some numbers on the site – see attached. Where I am getting confused is what is the % of dividend return? Hoping I am just looking in the wrong spot I am on the main website under “Fees & Distributions” – I would like to know how to calculate by hand (or simple calculator) and am curious if this % can be found elsewhere – if not is this something that can be passed on as a change! Thanks Fidelity is awesome ❤️
