Frequently Asked Questions About YBTY

What does YBTY invest in?

The Fund primarily aims to generate current income. Its secondary goal is to gain exposure to a curated selection of YieldBoost ETFs. These objectives are achieved by investing in YieldBoost strategies.

What is the expense ratio of YBTY?

GraniteShares YieldBoost TopYielders ETF (YBTY) charges an expense ratio of 1.38%. This is the annual fee deducted from fund assets to cover management and operations.

What is YBTY's distribution yield?

YBTY's trailing-twelve-month yield is 73.74%, 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 YBTY's covered-call strategy work?

YBTY 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 YBTY?

GraniteShares YieldBoost TopYielders ETF (YBTY) manages $1.8M 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 YBTY actively managed or an index fund?

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