MSTY dividend and distribution FAQ
What is the MSTY ETF?
MSTY is the YieldMax® MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF. MSTY seeks current income and exposure to the share price returns of Strategy Inc. common stock, subject to limits on potential gains.
How does MSTY work?
The actively managed fund sells call spreads referencing MSTR to seek weekly income and partial participation in MSTR appreciation. MSTY is a single-issuer option-income strategy tied to MSTR. It does not provide the same return as owning MSTR shares directly.
Does MSTY pay weekly distributions?
MSTY currently follows a weekly distribution schedule. The schedule, number of payments, and amounts can change and are not guaranteed.

The official fund materials list an expense ratio of 1.03% and inception date of February 21, 2024.
Can MSTY distributions include return of capital?
Yes. Distributions may include income, gains, or return of capital. Return of capital is not investment return and can reduce cost basis. Review the latest issuer notice.
What are the main risks of MSTY?
MSTR volatility and concentration can produce substantial losses. Call spreads cap some upside, option premium may not offset declines, and distributions can vary, be omitted, or include return of capital that coincides with NAV erosion.
How should I use the MSTY dividend calculator?
Treat the result as an estimate based on available market and distribution data, not a prediction or guarantee. Compare distributions with NAV changes and total return.
