YMAX at a glance

YMAX (YieldMax Universe Fund of Option Income ETFs) currently pays a 41.0% distribution yield, paid weekly. On a $10,000 investment that works out to about $4,100 a year, or roughly $342 a month before taxes. That yield ranks #46 of the 218 income ETFs we track.

It charges an expense ratio of 1.28%, which is on the higher end of the ETFs we track (about $128 a year per $10,000 invested) and it manages $378M in assets.

Yield is only half the story. YMAX's total return since it launched on January 16, 2024 is +45% (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.
