CHICAGO and MILWAUKEE and NEW YORK, Oct. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- YieldMax® ETFs today announced distributions for the YieldMax® Group 2 weekly pay ETFs. Group 2 Distribution Announcement Ex.

October's top monthly dividend stocks offer high yields, with many providing annual dividends from $1,000 invested exceeding share prices, but carry volatility risks. Banco Macro, ARMOUR Residential, and Horizon Technology Finance lead projected gains, with average net gain estimates of 39.98% on $1,000 invested. Analyst estimates suggest the five lowest-priced MoPay stocks may outperform the top ten overall, highlighting contrarian opportunities for income-focused investors.

Microsoft is positioned as a stable retiree asset, with growth driven by AI monetization and a growing dividend. The YieldMax MSFT Option Income Strategy ETF offers an aggressive ~32% yield via a buywrite strategy, suitable for retirement income. MSFO's upside capture is limited and downside protection is modest; its effectiveness depends on MSFT's low volatility profile.

Key Points in This Article: A big $200,000 bet on YieldMax covered call ETFs was made in pursuit of ultra-high yields.

Investing $1,000 in top-yielding MoPay stocks can yield significant returns, with estimated gains of 21.06% to 40.99% by April 2026. MoPay stocks are affordable but come with higher volatility and risk, making them suitable for investors seeking high yields despite potential market fluctuations. Analyst predictions for MoPay stocks are 60% accurate for top gainers, but caution is advised as accuracy on the degree of change is low.

YieldMax MSFT Option Income Strategy ETF offers high income through option premiums, but caps upside and exposes investors to single stock risk. MSFO's synthetic covered call strategy mimics MSFT's price action, generating income by selling out-of-the-money call options, but may underperform in strong bull markets. Despite a 29% dividend yield, MSFO's price has declined; ideal for income-focused investors and best held in tax-advantaged accounts due to tax implications.

December's MoPay equities offer high-yield, volatile bargains with dividends from $1K investments exceeding share prices, making now an opportune time to buy. Top ten MoPay stocks could net 13.37% to 38.38% gains by December 2025, based on analyst target prices and dividends. Analysts' estimates show a 21.81% average net gain for $1K invested in each of the top ten MoPay stocks, with 16% higher risk/volatility.

My investment strategy focuses on generating income from dividends and distributions, supplemented by writing covered calls and cash-secured puts. More broadly, I hold a mix of high-yield and dividend-growth investments, with the approach of both receiving high cash flow and seeing it grow over time as well. With my ETF approach, there are funds that fit both of these categories, some really "boring" names and then those that get more interesting in the "reaching-for-yield" category.
