What MSST earned, and what it may pay

a share · estimate
The estimate applies MSST’s last payout rate to what the fund is worth now. Over its own history that has been off by about 6% on average. It breaks when the fund changes its payout rate, which has happened roughly one week in five.
Premium is collected when the options are sold; some is paid back if the underlying closes above the strikes.

How much of MSTR’s rise MSST still follows

MSST has sold away part of its gains to pay you. This is where that starts and stops, if MSTR finishes there on Aug 21, 2026.

0%50%100%MSTR $93.04 today$105$115MSTR share price on Aug 21, 2026

Below $105, MSST keeps up with MSTR in full. Above $105 it stops following altogether — that is the upside it sold to pay this week’s distribution.

Above $115 it follows in full again, because the fund bought calls back at that level.

Whether MSST gives up meaningful upside here comes down to where MSTR trades by Aug 21, 2026. To judge how likely that is, you need a view on MSTR itself. Koyfin lets you compare the strike with its price history, earnings expectations and valuation — 20% off for YieldMaxCalc readers.

How MSST dividend dates work

MSST currently pays on a weekly schedule. For a YieldMax distribution, the declaration date is when the payout is announced, the ex-dividend date is the cutoff for owning shares, and the payment date is when the cash distribution is scheduled to be paid.

The ex-dividend date is the key date for investors: buying MSST on or after that date means you do not receive that declared payment. Use the MSST dividend calculator to model the income stream, or open the full MSST dividend history for every past payment.
