IMST: Not Even A New Wrapper For The Same MSTY Option Income Problem
MSTY and IMST both suffer from using highly volatile MSTR as the underlying, making option income strategies structurally weak for long-term investors. IMST does not offer meaningful improvements over MSTY in methodology, yield management, or risk mitigation based on current disclosures and early performance. Aggressive yields in both funds are misleading, as total returns are mostly driven by MSTR's price action rather than sustainable option income.

MSTY: This High-Risk, High-Yield ETF Is All Smoke And Mirrors
Yieldmax MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF's headline ~100%+ yield is mostly return of capital, not sustainable income, making the high payout misleading for long-term investors. The MSTY fund's synthetic covered call strategy on MicroStrategy Incorporated stock exposes it to significant downside risk, especially given MSTR's Bitcoin-driven volatility. While MSTY has outperformed peers in total return since inception, this is unlikely to be repeatable due to NAV erosion and unsustainable distributions.

Dividend Harvesting Portfolio Week 224: $22,400 Allocated, $2,349.12 In Projected Dividends
Despite a market pullback, my Dividend Harvesting Portfolio delivered positive returns and increased income, showcasing the benefits of diversification and disciplined reinvestment. I added to VICI, NNN, BSTZ, and MSTY, targeting high-yield, stable, and discounted assets poised to benefit from future Fed rate cuts and sector trends. The portfolio's forward dividend income and YoY growth remain strong, with reinvestment and sector allocation driving compounding income and downside risk mitigation.
