Compared with accounts its own size
Charles V Payne's engagement rate beats 40% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 32% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 18:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked.

Thanks to everyone who checked in on me. I just got back from an amazing family vacation in Scotland. Stayed at Balmoral & Gleneagles. Great people, great history, great food; overall wonderful (except United Airlines). I have some things to do tomorrow, then I'm back on the show Wednesday and yes...I'm pumped!

Measured over 48 original posts, its engagement rate beats 40% of 3,882 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end.

- What is Charles V Payne's engagement rate on X?
- Charles V Payne (@cvpayne) has an engagement rate of 0.015%, based on the median interactions across 48 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,031,121 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.015%, Charles V Payne sits above the 25th percentile of the 37,582 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @cvpayne have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 40% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @cvpayne post?
- Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 5.1 posts per day across the measured window.
