- By the record: the record runs from November 21, 2025 to October 4, 2026 across 46 payments, the last twelve months contributing $17.83 per share over 46 checks, and a prior-year comparison has to wait until the record is two years deep — close to 142% of the ~$12.58 share price.
- Pays: weekly.
- First paid: November 2025 — every payment since is charted below.
- What it is: the fund sells put options on ETFs that deliver 3x the daily performance of a semiconductor index — collecting premium supercharged by leverage, with capped upside. It does not hold the chip sector itself.
- Fee: 1.07% gross expense ratio (SEC prospectus fee table).
- The family: same design as TSYY and NVYY — GraniteShares' put-selling YieldBOOST suite.
Two force multipliers stack here: a semiconductor index's own volatility, then 3x daily leverage on top, then put-selling against the result. Premiums are enormous because the downside being insured is enormous — a hard fall in the chip sector hits the leveraged underlying multiplied, and the sold puts absorb it.
SEMY pays weekly. Each point below is one distribution since the fund began paying in November 2025.

Each point is one payment; the line ends at the most recent payout. The table below totals them by year.

| Recent Ex-Dividend Dates | Distribution / Share |
|---|
"Next expected" is estimated from SEMY's recent payment rhythm — the fund announces exact dates shortly before each payout, and the data feed can lag a few days. You must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout; the cash typically arrives days later. See every fund's upcoming date on the live dividend calendar.
A real total-return estimate, assuming every payout was reinvested — including what happened to the share price. Before taxes and fees. Past performance does not predict the future.
The YieldBOOST design is the most aggressive premium harvest GraniteShares runs: don't sell options on the asset — sell them on a leveraged fund of the asset, where daily moves are doubled or tripled and option buyers pay accordingly. TSYY proved the format on Tesla (~$114/share paid in 2025); SEMY runs it on a semiconductor index.
Weekly checks this size are financed by carrying leveraged downside — the chart's dips show when that bill arrived. Overlay SEMY against the unleveraged alternative on the compare tool before extrapolating any hot streak.

When Is SEMY's Next Ex-Dividend Date?
SEMY pays weekly. 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 SEMY's actual payment rhythm. Remember: you must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout.
SEMY's Record So Far
SEMY — the GraniteShares YieldBOOST Semiconductors ETF — launched in November 2025 and has paid weekly since November 2025. The chart above shows every declared distribution.
Why Sell Puts on a Leveraged Fund?
Because that's where the fear is priced. Options on a 3x daily vehicle must insure moves 3x as large, so their premiums scale with the leverage — and a fund that systematically sells them collects some of the richest income streams in the ETF world. The symmetric truth: it also stands first in line for the leveraged losses when a semiconductor index breaks hard. Every dollar on this chart was paid for carrying that exact risk.
The Most Volatile Income Stream We Track
Weekly payouts from leveraged-option premium are the most volatile income stream we track — never annualize a good month. Read the year-by-year table alongside the share price, and treat the Erosion Index as required reading for this suite.
