SPYT at a glance

SPYT (Defiance S&P 500 Income Target ETF) currently pays a 21.0% distribution yield, paid monthly. On a $10,000 investment that works out to about $2,100 a year, or roughly $175 a month before taxes. That yield ranks #104 of the 218 income ETFs we track.

It charges an expense ratio of 0.87%, which is middle of the pack among the ETFs we track (about $87 a year per $10,000 invested) and it manages $159M in assets.

Yield is only half the story. SPYT's total return since it launched on March 7, 2024 is +43% (about +15% per year), and our data flags price decay, meaning the share price is below where it started. Part of the income has been offset by a shrinking share price, so look at the total return, not just the payout.
