    Another possible factor but unproven:
    The markets tanked early April. It's possible VAS assumed a certain percentage of people would take up DRP. I noticed a reinvestment price was given before record date. If VAS automatically bought x basket of stocks to make units for ETF (they promised a set DRP) - then days later had to sell them for a loss to give those people cash distribution instead that would be taken out of next periods distribution (this one) if we got paid 90 something cents last quarter and let's say market tanked 5-10% that would mean 4-9 cents less this distribution if 100% of holders went from DRP to cash distribution (I know I quickly did lol) again cluching at straws but something to think about...
    I might even call them for a please explain.
