Why the distribution rate and the SEC yield are so different

They measure different things. The distribution rate annualises the latest payout against the share price. The SEC 30-day yield is a standard formula that counts only the fund's net investment income, such as dividends and interest, after expenses. Option premium is not included in it, so for option-income funds the two figures are usually far apart.
