The Fidelity NASDAQ Composite Index Fund dividend reflects a fund that holds at least 80% of its assets in common equity securities mirroring its benchmark index. It currently pays a 0.45% yield, with a trailing annual dividend rate of $1.5170 per share paid once a year. The next ex-dividend date is December 26, 2025. With a beta of 1.222, FNCMX tracks a growth-heavy index, making it a better fit for investors prioritizing capital appreciation over income.
Fidelity NASDAQ Composite Index Fund pays out dividends as a pass-through of income generated by its underlying holdings, making a traditional payout ratio not applicable (fund/ETF). Fidelity NASDAQ Composite Index Fund dividend safety is supported by the fund's additional revenue stream from securities lending, which supplements distributions beyond what the equity holdings alone generate. The primary pressure on the payout is the fund's heavy tilt toward growth-oriented equities, which tend to pay lower dividends, keeping the annual distribution subject to the income characteristics of the underlying index constituents.
Fidelity NASDAQ Composite Index Fund dividend history shows a CAGR of 4.0% per year from 2007 to 2025. Per-share payments grew from $0.7500 to $1.5170 over that span (2026 data is partial and excluded from the CAGR calculation). The largest annual increase in the window was 199.2% in 2019, though the history also contains at least one year-over-year decline exceeding 5%, reflecting the volatility inherent in a growth-index fund's income stream.
| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +9.4% | $1.16 (2022) | $1.52 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +6.9% | $1.09 (2020) | $1.52 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +4.4% | $0.98 (2015) | $1.52 (2025) |
FNCMX fits investors who want broad exposure to a growth-oriented index and are willing to accept minimal income in return. The current yield is classified as low (below 2%), and at 0.45% it sits above the fund's 5-year average yield of 0.38%, which is a modest positive but does little to change the income picture. Three consecutive years of dividend increases show some recent momentum, but the 4.0% CAGR over 18 years is unspectacular for an income-focused strategy. What an investor gets is diversified equity exposure built on statistical sampling across market cap, sector, and earnings growth criteria. What they give up is meaningful current income.
