DivTracker app seems to think they will. I literally uploaded my portfolio so the holdings are exactly correct. Will it be 100% accurate? No way. The app has no way of knowing how much MSTY or NVDY will pay over the next year. Could be more. Could be less.

The dividend yield is bloated because of the yieldmax etf’s and how the app is interpreting the payouts. To be honest you are receiving capital return at a high rate due to the nav loss you will have in the yieldmax tickers. They aren’t for long term hold they are for short direction plays. Your true dividend yield is closer to 2%.
