How SPAXX pays

A money market fund keeps its share price at $1.00 and pays you interest instead. SPAXX earns interest every day and pays it out once a month, usually as more shares on the last business day (most brokers reinvest it automatically). The 7-day yield is what the fund earned over the past week, after its fees, stated as a yearly rate. It moves with short-term interest rates, so expect it to change when the Federal Reserve does.
