TL;DR
- NVDY pays every week. The last 13 payments came to about $1.13 a share, roughly $4.50 a year at that pace, or about 45% of its price near $9.92.
- Its share price is near its 52-week low of $9.90, down from $16, as Nvidia fell and payouts drained the fund.
- It sells call options on Nvidia, so it keeps only part of Nvidia’s gains but takes most of its losses.

How it makes its payouts
NVDY gets Nvidia exposure through options and Treasury bills and sells call options on Nvidia each week. Nvidia’s big swings make those options valuable, which funds the payout. When Nvidia surges, NVDY’s gain is capped; when it drops, as on November 5, NVDY drops too.
What to watch
- Capped upside, full downside.
- Return of capital can be part of each payout.
- Earnings: Nvidia reports on November 17, and big moves either way matter for NVDY.
- Taxes: mostly ordinary income.
On Nvidia itself: NVDA stock prediction and is Nvidia overvalued. Other YieldMax funds: MSTY and ULTY.
