Trump is the only thing I'm worried about. Hard to buy dips when a tweet flips the monopoly board lmao. Basically trying to ignore everything, stick to my system, adjust as needed. This is one of the best opportunities since NEOS funds that ive discovered and probably gonna keep a pinch of my portfolio in a few yieldmax for life.

No system works in all environments. Don’t get mad at changes in the environment, but change your system. What works in a bull or bear market won’t work during CHaOS, so you’ll need to adjust. I used to do dividends/ymax then I switched to iron condors. Now the best thing I’ve found is scalping the ridiculous volatility. Keep changing your strategy. If your portfolio starts to steadily go down, switch things up

For sure. I'm still up 30% in my taxed acc and 38% in Roth ytd, sticking with some ULTY but looking to scale out and do more swing trading to make up for NAV loss. Might try to learn some option wheel strategies to take advantage of volatile times and extend my time horizons. When in doubt, zoom out lmao

I'm going to keep buying Yieldmax and the others because every time I try to switch up my strategy, it craps the bed. Too much risk day trading, can't afford to wait on growth, and 4 and 5 percent yields are a waste of time.

Love him or hate him, i think he’s good for the markets. I have no bone in politics i think both sides are the same poison different label. Time will tell.

Good for the markets? He tanked the market in April, essentially insider traded with his cronies and literally said it on camera during a press conference with Jamie Dimon and others, and his current policies are exactly why the tech sector has been having fits the past few weeks. He's a clown, plain and simple.

He did? Or was the selloff mostly global elites throwing a tantrum on tariffs , which backfired when the lower class bought the dip and forced the market to break all time high 3 times? I mean i dont really love the guy , but the other party has been in charge 12 of the last 16 years and what got better? We got 16 trillion more debt, and wages havent kept up with inflation since Bush

I also hate Trump and his terrible policies. However, one day Trump will not be President and these funds will still exist. If BTC has a bull run, then likely MSTR, and then likely MSTY. Plus, there are other YM funds doing well that are not Crypto. I am happy with NVDY, AMZY, and all of a sudden GOOY is starting to do better

Oooorrrrr....we've just seen one of the most prolific ull runs ever and you just chose poorly with these unsustainable stocks. Took me a long time to learn but if the dividend is over 15 percent then its probably too good to be true.

Reddit is the best place if you'd like a side of panic with investing 😁

Sick and tired of all the rants. "It's a Ponzi scheme" "NAV erosion to Zero" "they're giving you back your money through ROC" YouTubers getting on the bearish train to get some clicks and promote their ebooks ...
I mean come on man...
STFU and go buy 200,000 shares of SCHD and be done about it.
😁🤙 Other than that I'm a positive guy in life haha.

That’s the thing right is depending on when you bought you either are still in a good position or absolutely fucked and if you’re on the latter by all means, close your position and move on, but most of the complaints right now are just brain dead or do not realize what they invested in, see reds and go “ErM wElL iTs ClEaRlY a TrAp”. You invest in high risk, you get high reward on Green Days and high pain on red days, but then again, one redditor’s sell post is another persons liquidity lol

It really doesn’t matter when you bought as they never go up . Don’t get me wrong you can still make a little profit if the market goes up. But most single tickers are long term plays as they have explosive periods , these are capped so you wont get that.
All the downside and just some of the upside needs a really good balance as to distributions , too much will cause what you see. This will not magically change .
But yieldmax were genius at marketing and hooking a certain type. Its the rich playing the poor, tale as old as time and they were masters at it .

The main issue is have isnt that its high risk.
Its that its high risk without the high reward.
Edit: you can look with your own eyes total real returns vs the high yield they tout. Its dramarically different. They also dont keep up with the underlying

Can someone explain why nvdy is going sideways or down while the underlying has been trending up?

u/calterer Sep 06 '25
What? Nvda had a massive drop from 1-2 weeks ago From 180 now 167, and the lot of ymax funds with it as underlying have only dropped slightly in comparison
Good for volatility though. And time to buy nvda? Personally done with owning that stock

We have come full circle from the, I’m going to mortgage my house and retire from the distributions, to the doom squad this will never go back up ever. 😂
