The YieldMax Ultra Option Income Strategy ETF (ULTY) remains a high-risk, high-reward choice, best suited for speculative income investors seeking outsized yield at high costs. ULTY's recent strategy change stabilized NAV decay and improved its attractiveness, but its core mandate still carries significant risk compared to index-based income ETFs. A new addition to the YieldMax lineup, the Short Ultra Option Income Strategy ETF (SLTY) allows for the same face-melting yield, but with a short market direction.

The YieldMax Universe Fund of Option Income ETFs receives a Sell rating, while the YieldMax Ultra Option Income Strategy ETF is rated Buy. YMAX has outperformed ULTY since ULTY's inception, but its strategy lacks a compelling theme and offers limited diversification, mostly skewed toward tech and crypto. ULTY's dynamic, manager-driven option strategies and use of collars provide more consistent high yields and risk management, making it preferable for income investors.

The YieldMax Ultra Option Income Strategy ETF (NYSEARCA:ULTY) is a heavyweight when it comes to high-yielders.
