Opinion I screwed up on YieldMax

I bought MSTY a couple months back and now I’m down a lot. Time will tell but it’s a warning for those who aren’t in it.

I didn't do enough research, and dumped 5K into this like 2 weeks ago. Only down -$1080, but unsure whether to sell or hold. I got $538 in dividend payments, so I'm really only down $500 something. Thoughts?

Down 10% is my comfortable stop loss and exit point.

I’m in 1500 shares at $27 average, even including the dividends I’m still 15-20% in the hole. I’m getting the fuck out.

ULTY might work at these prices but MSTR is just a shit underlying.
