YieldMax JP Option Income Strategy ETF is an ETF that seeks current income with indirect exposure to JPMorgan Chase common stock through a synthetic covered call options strategy, which caps potential gains on the underlying shares. The fund distributes income on a weekly basis and carries an expense ratio of 1.04%. It appeals to income-focused investors seeking regular payouts from a large financial services company, though the covered call structure limits upside participation in share price appreciation.

How Dividend Vision calculates yield and returns
Distribution rate (18.39%) is the latest regular payout annualized by the fund's stated frequency, divided by the last close. Issuers often publish this as “Distribution Rate” on the fact sheet. Trailing-12-month yield (34.03%) is the sum of distributions paid in the last 12 months, split-adjusted, divided by the last close. It lags a recent raise or cut. Total return uses split-adjusted close with distributions reinvested on the ex-dividend date (a modeling convention, not the cash-settlement date) from the first stored bar on or after inception through the latest bar, compared with the same window on the benchmark. That is the security's total return, not your personal gain/loss.
