GPTY fund facts
As published by YieldMax for 6 November 2026, with the change since 7 Oct 2026.
Why the distribution rate and the SEC yield are so different
They measure different things. The distribution rate annualises the latest payout against the share price. The SEC 30-day yield is a standard formula that counts only the fund's net investment income, such as dividends and interest, after expenses. Option premium is not included in it, so for option-income funds the two figures are usually far apart.

What happens to the price on the ex-date
On an ex-date the payout leaves the fund, so the price usually falls by about that amount. Over GPTY's last 12 ex-dates the closing price fell a median $0.27, against a median payout of $0.29. The price also moves with the market on the day.
