Frequently Asked Questions About RDTY

What does RDTY invest in?

The YieldMax R2000 0DTE Covered Call Strategy ETF (RDTY) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund. It is designed to produce current income while simultaneously providing exposure to the Russell 2000 Index's price performance. The fund primarily generates income through the sale of out-of-the-money (OTM) call options with zero days to expiration ('0DTE'), targeting the Russell 2000 Index or its associated ETFs. This strategy aims to frequently capture option premiums, with the ultimate goal of weekly income distributions.

What is the expense ratio of RDTY?

YieldMax R2000 0DTE Covered Call Strategy ETF (RDTY) charges an expense ratio of 1.73%. This is the annual fee deducted from fund assets to cover management and operations.

What is RDTY's distribution yield?

RDTY's trailing-twelve-month yield is 44.37%, calculated from the sum of distributions over the past year divided by the current price. A rate this high reflects large option-premium distributions against a NAV that has declined over the same period. Part of each payout may be return of capital rather than earned income.

How does RDTY's covered-call strategy work?

RDTY sells call options against the stocks (or index) it holds, collecting premium income that gets passed through to shareholders as distributions. The strategy generates above-market income in flat or rising markets but caps upside. When the underlying rallies past the strike, the gains above the strike go to the option buyer, not the fund.

How big is RDTY?

YieldMax R2000 0DTE Covered Call Strategy ETF (RDTY) manages $15.0M in total assets. AUM determines bid-ask liquidity and the fund's vulnerability to closure. Funds below ~$50M are at higher risk of liquidation.

Is RDTY actively managed or an index fund?

RDTY's management style is described in the fund's prospectus. See the description on the Summary tab for the published strategy.
