YieldMax AI Option Income Strategy ETF (AIYY)

About YieldMax AI Option Income Strategy ETF

AIYY aims to generate monthly income while providing exposure to the price returns of the C3 ai, Inc. stock (AI), subject to a cap on potential investment gains. The fund utilizes a synthetic covered call strategy via standardized exchange-traded and FLEX options, which consists of three elements: i) synthetic long exposure, ii) covered call writing, and iii) US Treasurys. The synthetic long exposure seeks to replicate the price movements of AI shares by purchasing and selling at-the-money call and put options that generally have six-month to one-year terms. To generate income, the fund writes call options with an expiration of one month or less and a strike price of approx. 5%-15% above AIs current share price. This limits the funds participation in potential gains if AI shares increase in value above the cap. Lastly, the fund holds cash and short-term Treasury securities as collateral. Note: the fund does not invest directly in C3 ai, Inc. stock. Thus, investors are not entitled to any AI dividends.
