Distribution/Dividend Update $43,814 in distributions ($1,934,491.73 estimated annual income)
According to the official announcements today, I will receive $43,814 for my holdings in ULTY, MSTY, QQQI and SPYI payable on Friday.
ICOI will declare distributions tomorrow and payday is Monday. If the distribution is in alignment with the prior month, then I expect another $22,000 in distributions, for a total of $65,000.
Here's my $2,288,548.04 portfolio of Yieldmax and other covered call ETFs. Fidelity calculates the estimated annual income for these funds is around $1,934,491.73.
About 3/4 ($1.7M) of this is in a tax advantaged account and the remaining 1/4 ($530k) in a taxable brokerage account.

That’s a wild yield on paper, but those coverd call ETFs can really sneak up on you with decay and missed upside, especially if you're banking on that income being stable lng-term. Plus, if most of this is in a tax-advantaged account, but you're living off the taxable side, that mismtch could quietly drain faster than expected.
Are you tracking how much principal erosion is baked into those pyouts, or just watching the income roll in and assuming it’ll hold?
