   "q": "How often does SNOY pay, and how much?",
   "a": "SNOY pays weekly. The latest distribution annualizes to 59.4% at its price on Sep 18, 2026, which is not a promise; the next one can differ."

  {
   "q": "Is the SNOY distribution return of capital?",
   "a": "YieldMax estimates 0% of the distribution paid Sep 18, 2026 was return of capital. That is a tax characterization from the fund's own 19a-1 notice, not a measure of erosion."
  },
  {
   "q": "When does SNOY next pay a distribution?",
   "a": "SNOY pays weekly. The last distribution went ex on Sep 17, 2026 at $0.1285 a share. The issuer has set the next ex-date at Sep 22, 2026 but not the amount."
