The YieldMax MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF (MSTY) has gained attention for its high dividend yields linked to MSTR, a company heavily invested in Bitcoin. While MSTY currently offers a yield of 135%, regulatory limits and market volatility pose significant risks to investor payouts. The ETF's recent dividend distribution of $1.47 per share represents a 38% decrease, reflecting profitability concerns stemming from losses. Additionally, a surge in shares outstanding complicates future dividend sustainability, prompting potential contributors to consider the growing challenges within MSTY's income generation strategy.
MSTY generates monthly income from an options-based strategy, primarily selling call options on MSTR stock, achieving eye-catching yields with $28.69 per share paid out last year.
The latest payout decreased to $1.47 per share, a 38% decline from May, linked to profitability challenges due to potential losses in realized and unrealized positions.
