YieldMax ETFs is a company that’s no stranger to my channel, as I talk about them and their ever-growing lineup of dividend funds on a regular basis. Since I first started covering this company in early 2023, they’ve gone from having just three ETFs to now over 50. It’s very clear that this company has been successful at attracting a lot of investors, and we all know the reason why. It’s because of these insane distribution yields that these ETFs tout. And since 2023, many people, including myself, have been critical of the entire fund lineup offered by YieldMax and how all of their ETFs have faced serious share price declines since their inceptions.
At first glance, the YieldMax Ultra Option Income Strategy ETF, ticker ULTY, might appear to be no different than every other YieldMax fund in this company’s lineup. According to their website, it’s offering a distribution yield of over 80%, just like many of their other ETFs. Since being launched in February of 2024, ULTY has reported a share price decline of nearly 70%. That sounds terrible to any buy-and-hold long-term investor like myself, and pulling up its share price chart, we can clearly see its dramatic fall over time. But that’s not the only thing that’s evident when looking at the share price performance of ULTY. Since late March of this year, we can clearly see something’s been going on with this ETF.
