YMAX: Very High-Yielding Fund Of Funds
YieldMax Universe Fund of Option Income ETFs offers high distribution yields, with a trailing cumulative yield of ~40.63%, and switched to weekly distributions in September 2024. The YMAX ETF primarily invests in other ETFs using options strategies, leading to high yields but also significant price volatility and risks, especially in bear markets. Despite a total return of ~24.3% in 2024, YMAX underperformed the S&P 500 Index during market downturns, raising concerns about its resilience in adverse conditions.

YMAX: Unconventional Method To Wealth Building That Outperformed The S&P 500
YMAX offers a high distribution yield of around 66%, making it attractive for income investors despite its short performance history and potential NAV decay. The fund's strategy involves diverse holdings in various YieldMax option ETFs, reducing single stock risk but limiting upside potential due to its options strategy. YMAX's tech-heavy focus can be risky, especially if the sector downturns and its high yield may have significant tax consequences.

YMAX: Is This 43% Dividend Yield Sustainable?
YieldMax Universe Fund is a diversified fund-of-funds that invests in other YieldMax call-selling ETFs, but it suffers from principal decay and high fees. YMAX's construction leads to a double-fee structure and exposure to high beta factors, causing significant NAV erosion and underperformance compared to the indices. Despite its 43% yield, YMAX's distributions are declining over time, making the high yield unsustainable and unattractive for long-term investment.
