A股很多股票每年都会有分红。指数基金 持有股票，也可以收到这些分红。 有的基金会攒一攒,然后以基金分红的 形式分出来。 只不过目前A股对指数基金的分红没有严 格要求,所以也有很多指数基金不做分 红,而是把分红直接归入到基金净值中 了。 实际上分红也没有丢失的，类似于分红 再投入了。 也就是基金公司收到分红之后，会再投 入成股票。 这是因为，指数基金必须时刻保持比较高 的股票仓位。 假设一年的股息率3%，如果基金收到这 些分红之后，以现金的形式拿着，股票 仓位就降低了3%，这是违背基金合同 的。 所以对于很多指数基金,如果收到底层 成分股的分红,然后基金又不打算分 红,就会把分红再投成股票,类似于分 红再投入的效果。 ▼点击阅读原 文，免费学习大额家 ...
