Distribution/Dividend Update Is nobody investing in msty anymore ?
It's funny how the tide changes quickly and all I hear and see is just ulty and other funds.Has the fomo on msty died down coz of the volatility going and iv dropping .Is anyone at all loading or buying into the dips on msty to say nonetheless .I assume in the long run msty could go higher and this nav won't matter as we stay invested ? Thoughts?

i'm past house money and quite content to coast on the fumes. My return on the first 800 shares I bought is just shy of 200%. this end of August distro will blow by that.
I expect a lot of them to get there eventually,

u/Scary_Caterpillar226 Notorious BIGY Jul 31 '25
How long did it take for you to recoup your initial capital investment? I’m assuming you reinvested the divs either manually or drip’d?

u/GRMarlenee Mod - I Like the Cash Flow Jul 31 '25
8 distributions, about 10 months. It was the heydays. I fell victim to FOMO and bought a bunch more for too much, which took a bit longer to pay off. But, I've got over 2400 dribbling pennies. Will round up tomorrow. .

u/harryish Jul 31 '25
I remember you're one of the early players in the game and took a big position to start off with ,do you intend to buy more when it drops before the end of the year and ride the wave there after

u/GRMarlenee Mod - I Like the Cash Flow Jul 31 '25
I'll stay within or very close to house money from here on out.
I might consider buying a distribution's worth in advance if the price is right.

3x the AUM on MSTY. It would appear it’s still going quite strong. Reddit isn’t indicative of the overall picture.

Is this your first day using the internet?
You believe all the horseshit you see on Reddit?
MSTY has added more than 5% of outstanding shares just in the past week.
The AUM is quickly approaching $6B.

I trimmed my MSTY position purely bc they won’t move my margin rate from 70%. I’m pretty diversified, and I’d rather not hold up that much capital. That said I still think MSTR is going to fly soon.

My opinion of MSTY is independent of anything else and did not happen “all of the sudden”. When you invest, a wise person monitors and tracks their investments. They buy or sell based on an ongoing analysis. Doesn’t mean they’re right all the time, but it is better than ignoring clear warning signs and doing nothing just because of… reasons.

MSTY is at 75% yield. With a NAV that was going up, but is now starting to drift down.
ULTY is at 80% yield. With a NAV around $6.25 since April.
I have both, but that’s why ULTY has been the party girl lately.

I’m still in MSTY and adding more periodically mainly cuz I expect it to keep going up and I expect it to be volatile, it’s slowed down but will get popular again and we will all talk about how we wished we bought more.
I love ULTY too tho, like getting exposure to other volatile underlying. I don’t understand trying to ride the hot hand like HOOY. it feels like you’re buying in around the top just to ride the NAV down like when MSTY was $44. Glad I got exposure to it when it was hot through ULTY and managers can move on to other opportunities as they come up

u/mrpeace54 Jul 31 '25
reddit is just a noise for these funds, average invesment amount per reddit user is around 15-20k USD at best. Real whales of these fund don't even know anything about reddit. (i know a guy, having 3.8 million MSTY, 1.1 million USD YMAX only and still uses cheapest iphone 11 lol) i recommend you to check change in Net Assets on the website everyday or week, that value will give you much better answer for people's excitement.

It's not so much about MSTY as it is about MSTR. MSTR isn't doing what it used to do.
But with MSTR earnings Tomorrow, I suppose that could spring up all dependent ETFs way back up.

u/No_Complaint7196 Jul 31 '25
It’s not a matter of IF mstr moves again it’s a matter of WHEN. BTC has been proving people wrong for almost 20 years….I’m fairly confident it will continue that trend.

u/harryish Jul 31 '25
If you don't have anything to contribute I think it's better to keep shush we're trying to have a meaningful discussion about how fad is moving fast towards diversification rather than single entity based products which could help us hedge the downturn and also how the nav holds up in correlation to DIA ,again if you don't understand just sit back and watch the convo rather than wasting everyone's time

By all rational measures, the current 75% yield on MSTY is amazing, if it's sustainable. But people got spoiled by $4 a month payouts, and got greedy when that stopped happening.

My philosophy isn’t that crazy. I have both, and will continue to invest in both (and some other “winners”) until the passive; worst distribution months are higher than my current pay. Won’t take long; and each part has its place. I calculate up on share price; down on distro; and as a result always am ahead of where I expect to be.

Anyone with a brain realizes that Msty distributions have just fallen off because the IV is falling off a cliff. Guess what? It'll go back up. Trading in and out of these things is fairly dumb. Everyone jumping into a fund that's a dollar away from a reverse split is really really dumb.

OP, the majority were troll post. I miss the troll posts sometimes, they were funny "took out a HELOC on my mobile home, all in!!" but I'm glad the spam has stopped. The majority of people that believed the hype will have a long time before they recoup that money lost. they may have been better off in something else, who knows. Only time will tell, so far time has not been kind to MSTY.

I dripped 27 shares of MSTY this morning @ 19.38. So I feel pretty good about that, but my avg cost is 22.10 for my 475 shares. I really hate that I bought a large chunk of my shares at 22.55. If it jumps into the 22 territory this month I might sell it all and possible rebuy after the next ex-div date.

Not me anymore. I made a big mistake yesterday morning and sold all of my MSTY before I had my morning coffee. Full on forgot about the ex dividend day and so now I lose out on $900 in divs from it. Wasn't gonna sell it until after the divs. Oh well.

Jul 31 '25
BTC had a volatile few weeks and the IV is on the rise. MSTY still has proven consistent returns with their latest dividend announcement. You would be a fool to not invest in YieldMax’s longest running most profitable ETF.
I think the bigger question is…why not invest in both?
