YMAG: Better To Avoid This Shortcut
The YMAG ETF holds other covered call ETFs, not the underlying Magnificent Seven stocks directly. High management fees (1.28%) and 94% of payouts are return of capital, not real income. Alternative ETFs like MAGS or direct stock buys offer better total return and participation in rallies.

Here's How I Collect Dividends Every Week
I use weekly paying option ETFs as a supplemental income stream, pairing them with core S&P 500 and Nasdaq ETF holdings for a hybrid approach. These synthetic option ETFs offer high yields and tax-efficient distributions, but come with limited upside and significant downside risk during market declines. I focus on index-based option ETFs for stability, while keeping allocations to riskier, concentrated funds like YMAX and YMAG small.

YMAG: Weekly Income That's Worth The Risk
YMAG offers a unique 65% annual yield via weekly payouts, ideal for income-focused investors seeking creative ways to amplify portfolio income. However, the yield is always changing based on payouts. The fund uses a synthetic options strategy on Mag 7 stocks, trading upside for high, tax-efficient distributions, but with elevated risk and volatility. While YMAG underperforms underlying equities, patient investors can reach 'house money' status quickly, reducing risk and enjoying steady, tax-advantaged income.

Evaluating YMAG's Trade-Offs
Despite high payouts, YMAG lags both MAGS and VUG in total returns, especially during bull markets—highlighting the opportunity cost of capped upside. YMAG does little to reduce portfolio drawdowns or volatility compared to owning the underlying Magnificent 7 directly. Simulating income from MAGS or VUG through partial redemptions often yields better results, making YMAG redundant except for niche tax, ownership ease or specific market conditions.

YMAG: I Expect Long-Term Underperformance
The YieldMax Magnificient 7 Fund of Option Income ETFs has outperformed the market since launch, but I do not expect that to continue. Investors should not view income from this fund like a traditional dividend, as the net asset value of the ETF is highly likely to decline over time. Dividend payments are likely to decrease once the current bout of market volatility subsides.

YMAG: The Mag 7, But With 70% More Yield
The Magnificent Seven stocks, influential in tech and consumer trends, have underperformed in 2025, significantly trailing the S&P 500. Covered call funds are recommended to generate income from volatility, offering a strategic position for investors in this challenging market. The YieldMax Magnificent 7 Fund of Options Income ETFs provides a way to benefit from this strategy, despite the overall decline in Mag 7 stocks.
