No, that's fair. I like the income. Regardless of the other steps, the 35% of divs always gets put to the side.

Is that what it's taxed at?
Or just taxed as normal income and you're in the 35% bracket?

If in a taxable brokerage account, Ordinary dividends get taxed at ordinary rates. Qualified get taxed at capital gains rates.

What the guy above me said. I’m probably being overly cautious but I have some other K-1 and 1099 work, so I’m playing it safe this year. I’m only about five months into these Yieldmax funds, so it’s new territory for me.

Aren't these dividends qualified and tax efficient for yeildmax?

I haven’t been able to tell. Likely a combo of qualified, ordinary, and return of capital.

The distribution may include a combination of ordinary dividends, capital gain, and return of investor capital, which may decrease a fund’s NAV and trading price over time. As a result, an investor may suffer significant losses to their investment.

According to that the one from 6/25 was all a return of capital

correct. looks like no qualified dividends because this fund does not pay "real" dividends.

However, most of its distributions are considered return of capital, not true income. This means they can erode your cost basis and have tax consequences.

Do they list their costs? I know they have a standard mgt fee. But it’s got to be expensive sell puts and calls to create their synthetic longs. They seem to focus on the potential nav decays connection to to the falling underline equity.
But they could easily take loses on from bad calls, and puts that would drain the NAV.
