How this is computed

N-PORT months: money in is sales plus reinvestments; money out is redemptions. Months summed from daily data: money in adds the days money came in; money out adds the days it went out.

N-PORT months are the filed sales plus reinvestments less redemptions. Later months add up the daily data; the Source column names any missing day.

Source: ETFIQ, from the fund’s daily share counts and net asset values, and its SEC N-PORT filings. Data as of Oct 27, 2026. Last checked Oct 29, 2026.

Questions people ask about RDTY

How much has RDTY paid over the last year?
Over the year to Oct 28, 2026, RDTY paid 34.3% of its starting price in cash distributions, while the price fell 23.3%.
Is RDTY ahead of IWM?
Over the year to Oct 28, 2026, with every distribution reinvested, RDTY returned +13.6% against +14.1% for Russell 2000 (IWM), so a holder was about even with it by 0.5 points.
How often does RDTY pay, and how much?
RDTY pays weekly. The latest distribution annualizes to 36.2% at its price on Oct 28, 2026, which is not a promise; the next one can differ.
Is the RDTY distribution return of capital?
YieldMax estimates 100% of the distribution paid Oct 29, 2026 was return of capital. That is a tax characterization from the fund's own 19a-1 notice, not a measure of erosion.
When does RDTY next pay a distribution?
RDTY pays weekly. The last distribution went ex on Oct 28, 2026 at $0.2353 a share. The next is not declared; on a cadence of about 7 days the ex-date falls near Nov 4, 2026, which is an ETFIQ projection. Payment usually follows the ex-date by 1 day.
What does RDTY cost?
The prospectus expense ratio is 1.73% a year.
How much of RDTY’s distribution is return of capital?
YieldMax’s Rule 19a-1 notice estimates 100.0% of the distribution paid Oct 29, 2026 was return of capital. Across its notices for distributions paid Oct 30, 2025 to Oct 22, 2026, the estimate is 64.7%. The annual report for the fiscal year to Jul 31, 2026 puts it at 58.4% of distributions. Estimates come before the fund year closes and often change.

Price change plus every distribution reinvested on the day it went ex-dividend. This is what you actually ended up with, and the only fair basis for comparing with an index.
Cash paid
Distributions over the window as a share of what the fund cost at the start. A measure of cash delivered, not of return: a fund can pay a great deal and still lose money.
Total return minus benchmark total return, in percentage points. A fund can pay 12% a year and still be behind by 10 points if its price fell while the index rose.
Return of capital
The issuer’s own estimate, in a Rule 19a-1 notice, of how much of a distribution was your own money returned. An estimate and a tax characterization, not a measure of erosion.
The fund owns the stocks and sells call options on them, collecting premium and giving up gains above the strike. Synthetic covered call funds hold options instead of the stocks. 0DTE funds sell options that expire the same day.
A fund that pays a coupon and can be called away early, on dates set when it launched. If it is called, you get your money back with the coupon and the run ends. If it is not, it runs on to the next date.
The level the underlying has to stay above for you to be repaid in full. A barrier is not a buffer. A buffer takes the first slice of a fall for you; a barrier takes none of it once it breaks, so below it you take the whole fall rather than only the part past it.
