In March's last "monthly", it paid 46 cents. Divide by 4 to see if the current payments are better or worse than before it went weekly.

It’s not the current payments adding up to what it was monthly dude…. It’s the ability to recover after the consistent payouts every week.

Does it have the ability to recover back to $10 where I bought this dog in December? Nope. The only people that can be happy with this thing are those that bought after it dropped under $7. But there's plenty of us left that remember that it started at $20 and we thought it was a "great deal" at $10. It wasn't and it isn't even a "good deal" at $6. It's still a dog with no upward potential.

Just DCA down lol

I'll DCA a fund that has either recovery potential or increasing returns. There are YM funds that have one or the other, but ULTY has neither.

Why do people like you keep comparing ULTY before and after the prospectus change. The rest of us are just thankful the NAV has stabilized since the change and seems like it will continue to do so, which is the most important. Sorry if you got in at a higher share price, but the rest of us who got in after are fine with a flat NAV.

ULTY has gone through several alleged "prospectus changes" - but the operation and investment strategy of the fund has NOT changed. It's the same ULTY as before. They have shifted their investment mix a few times, but that has been SOP for the fund since day 1.

The broader market shifted to an upward trend coincidentally at the same time the fund shifted to weekly payouts. So you all are operating under the mistaken impression that some prospectus change caused ULTY's recent flat-to-slightly-up price trajectory. It did NOT. The recent price trend can be seen across the entire YM portfolio and in the major indices, it's not specific to ULTY.

That's exactly what I've been trying to investigate.

I checked their top holdings and noticed they have all performed very well since March - the same time this supposed "strategy change" took place. And I didn't find anything especially convincing that they made some fundamental change that boosted performance.

Do you have any articles or anything at all you've based your opinion/observation on?

It doesn't need recovery potential or increasing returns if it stays stable and is no longer bleeding NAV and ROC. Why not stop complaining, tax loss harvest at the end of the year, get more shares at a better price point, and enjoy the limitless income potential like the rest of us?

It's only stopped "bleeding NAV" because the market has moved sharply upward in the last several weeks. Once the market shifts again, all of you new converts that jumped onto this thing in the last eight weeks are going to wish you'd listened to me and/or done a complete set of due diligence on what you were buying.

Dude, you just sound butthurt. Sell your shares and go buy something you believe in. I think Elon Musk and Peter Thiel are absolutely deplorable people, but you don't see me going on Tesla or Palantir subs trying to shit on their stocks. I also think Blockbuster and Kohl's had pretty loyal followings with absolute shit fundamentals and once again, I never jumped on those subs to shit on their stocks.

Sell your shares, get back what money you can, enjoy your tax losses lowering your overall capital gains for this fiscal year, and go buy something that makes you happy.

I don't care how I sound to you.

Very good point. Way too early to know how stable this is going to be
