What RDYY earned, and what it may pay

a share · estimate
Settling last week’s options cost 15.2¢, and Treasury bills yielding 3.90% added 0.7¢.
Net for the week: -0.4¢ a share.
RDYY lost money on options this week. The underlying rose through the strikes it had sold, so buying those calls back cost more than the new ones brought in. That is the trade-off working as designed — the fund gives up the upside it sold. Any distribution this week comes out of the fund’s assets.
The estimate applies RDYY’s last payout rate to what the fund is worth now. Over its own history that has been off by about 20% on average. It breaks when the fund changes its payout rate, which has happened roughly one week in five.

How much of RDDT’s rise RDYY still follows

RDYY has sold away part of its gains to pay you. This is where that starts and stops, if RDDT finishes there on Nov 13, 2026.

0%50%100%RDDT $98.45 today$97$101RDDT share price on Nov 13, 2026

Below $97, RDYY keeps up with RDDT in full. Above $97 it stops following altogether — that is the upside it sold to pay this week’s distribution.

Above $101 it follows in full again, because the fund bought calls back at that level.

Whether RDYY gives up meaningful upside here comes down to where RDDT trades by Nov 13, 2026. To judge how likely that is, you need a view on RDDT itself. Koyfin lets you compare the strike with its price history, earnings expectations and valuation — 20% off for YieldMaxCalc readers.

How RDYY dividend dates work

RDYY 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 RDYY on or after that date means you do not receive that declared payment. Use the RDYY dividend calculator to model the income stream, or open the full RDYY dividend history for every past payment.
