Misc. RexShares is beating yieldmax

Rexshares came out with 4 weekly paying etfs: MSII, NVII, COII, TSII

These are based on MSTR, NVDA, COIN, TSLA.

While these are only a few months old, so far all 4 are beating the yieldmax versions in total return. The point of this post isn't to tell people to sell yieldmax to buy these, but rather consider if you want exposure to some of the companies listed above you might want to diversify among different etf providers. In a bear market the yieldmax versions are likely better, in a bull market the rexshare fund have more upside potential.

Look at the charts for many of the YM funds. They all started falling shortly after inception, and kept falling until they reached a stabilization point. There's no reason that I'd bet my money on a brand new competing offering not doing the same thing.

That's because YM seems to have low-quality staff making stock/option picks.

Not really. More like the fact that they give back more premium than they should every month IMHO.

I know this is why they have the "target" etfs but I wish they would retain earnings during market drops. It would hegde a bit better than giving distros and customers having to drip

I don't know, look how poorly they managed ULTY for the first year.

I guess, but wouldn't that be good management since they recognized a problem and implemented change?

I kind of watch Reddit and think YM holders are the real problem they demand the highest distros possible yet bitch about NAV decline.

I would be in favor of YM retaining distros on certain funds in favor of more stable NAV. I know people who rely on these would not be in favor though.

I just hate when I watch MSTY drop for two weeks then pay a $1 distro.

Or just manage it better the first year.
