YieldMax MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF

MSTY seeks to provide current income and capped gains on the MicroStrategy stock (MSTR) through a synthetic covered call strategy, collateralized by cash and US Treasurys. The actively managed fund uses both standardized exchange-traded and FLEX options.

Bitcoin's volatility presents an opportunity to maximize gains, particularly with the YieldMax MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF (MSTY). MSTY's call-option-selling strategy generates strong distributions, especially with MicroStrategy Inc.'s (MSTR) high implied volatility, making it an excellent vehicle for variable monthly income. The fund's recent near-doubling of AUM, with a forward yield potentially reaching 130% amid ongoing market volatility.

MSTY: Leverage The Volatility As BTC-USD Prepares To Breach $100k, Upgrading To Buy

A 45% forward dividend yield is not “free money.” Income strategy or trading as well, caution is required. MSTY employs covered call and credit call spread strategies, which can limit gains in bullish markets and incur losses in bearish markets. MSTY may perform well in a sideways market or a slight downtrend of MSTR.

MSTY vs MSTX vs MSTU: Which is the better MicroStrategy ETF?

MSTY carried a tremendous distribution rate of 197.8%, and a total return since inception of 157%. Despite this return, it has still underperformed MSTR, its underlying. However, MSTY may have a place in a portfolio because of its exposure to BTC and volatility-harvesting through the synthetic covered call strategy.

Yieldmax MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF offers investors exposure to an actively managed options strategy focused primarily on MicroStrategy. MSTY has generally performed in line with MSTR shares, though shareholder upside is capped due to the call strategy of the fund. The distribution rate is enormous at 84.2%. Though, income investors seeking stable returns over time should likely steer clear of this Bitcoin-adjacent derivative play.

The Yieldmax MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF provides high current income from writing covered calls on MSTR shares. MSTY's 105% annualized distribution yield simply reflects the riskiness of MSTR shares. There is no long-term systematic edge from selling call options. 3 questions investors should ask are: 1) Do they like MSTR, 2) Do they want to trade upside for yield. 3) Do they want to trade unrealized gains for income?

Yieldmax MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF focuses on maximizing investment returns on MicroStrategy Incorporated using an options strategy. The MSTY fund's distributions have been excellent, but it is a new fund with no trends to indicate if returns will persist. MSTY is a suitable option for MicroStrategy investors looking to take advantage of an eventual re-rating on weak fundamentals, but the timing isn't right now, with Bitcoin rallying hard.

MSTY: A Risky Buy Based On An Equally Risky Bearish Bitcoin Outlook

MSTY is a new YieldMax ETF that generates income by selling call options on MicroStrategy, a company with significant Bitcoin holdings. The ETF deploys a Synthetic Covered Call Strategy and offers an ultra-high dividend yield of 22.96%. I recommend MSTY as a buy for income investors seeking diversified income and believe in the long-term "digital gold" prospects of Bitcoin.
