CHPY Distribution — Quick Facts
  • Pays: weekly — typically going ex-dividend on Wednesdays.
  • First paid: April 17, 2025 — 71 weekly distributions without a miss.
  • What it is: the YieldMax Semiconductor Portfolio Option Income ETF — option income across a basket of chip names (the Nvidias, AMDs, and Broadcoms) instead of betting on one, at a 1.03% expense ratio.
  • Why the checks are big: chip stocks are the market's most volatile sector after crypto, and volatility is what option buyers pay for — the trailing 12 months paid $26.56 per share, roughly 39% of the recent ~$67.25 price, with the record week ($0.775) in June 2026 and August's checks near $0.55.
  • Basket, not single-stock: one company's earnings disaster can't sink it — but a sector-wide chip slump hits every holding at once.

CHPY makes no promise to pay any particular amount; each payout depends on the option income earned that period.

Silicon Volatility, Sold by the Week

Semiconductor stocks swing harder than almost anything else with earnings attached — AI headlines, export rules, and boom-bust chip cycles keep option premiums rich. CHPY harvests those premiums across a basket of chipmakers and pays them out weekly. The diversification softens single-company disasters; the sector concentration means a chip winter would cool every holding — and every check — at once.

The family physics still apply: capped upside, kept downside, return-of-capital components. Judge CHPY by total return in the backtest above, and get the machinery in What Are YieldMax ETFs?

When Is CHPY's Next Ex-Dividend Date?

CHPY pays weekly — typically going ex-dividend on Wednesdays. The exact date of each payout is announced by the fund only shortly beforehand, so no site can promise the next date — but the live schedule box above shows the most recent ex-dividend date and the expected window for the next one, computed from CHPY's actual payment rhythm. Remember: you must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout.

CHPY's Record So Far

CHPY — the YieldMax Semiconductor Portfolio Option Income ETF — launched in April 2025, mid-AI-boom, and has paid weekly ever since: about $15.68 per share across its partial 2025, and $26.56 over the trailing twelve months, with the single-week record of $0.775 set June 24, 2026 and August 2026's checks landing between $0.547 and $0.570. That steadiness (by YieldMax standards) reflects its design: a rotating basket of chip names rather than one ticker's fate.

Why Semiconductors Pay So Well

Chip stocks live on expectation — AI capex, export politics, inventory cycles — and expectation is volatile. Option buyers pay heavily for exposure to those swings, and CHPY sells it to them, week after week. When the sector runs hot, premiums swell; when it cools, they shrink. The chart above is a live record of exactly how hot the chip trade has been.

Where CHPY Fits

CHPY suits an investor who wants the semiconductor theme as income rather than growth — accepting sold-away rallies in exchange for weekly cash. For the single-stock version of this trade see NVDY; for the family's broadest basket see ULTY. Its next expected date is always on the live calendar.

Understand These Funds Before You Buy

Option income, return of capital, NAV erosion — the three things every YieldMax buyer should understand, in plain English.
