How much leverage does TSII use?

The prospectus targets daily leveraged exposure between 1.05x and 1.50x of TSLA; in practice the fund has operated around 1.25x. Phrase it as a range — the manager can move within it.

How does TSII pay weekly income if it's a growth fund?

It sells covered calls on a portion of the leveraged position. Selling on only part keeps most of Tesla's upside live while the sold slice funds the weekly distribution — the design premise of the Growth & Income line.

Why are TSII's distributions mostly return of capital?

Recent 19a-1 notices estimated ~98% of distributions as return of capital. The classification (finalized at year-end) means the checks mostly reduce your cost basis instead of being taxed as income now — relevant math when you eventually sell.

How is TSII different from TSLY?

TSLY converts essentially all of TSLA's upside into option premium — maximum income, no rally participation. TSII does the opposite trade-off: 1.05x-1.50x leveraged participation with only partial call coverage — less income, much more exposure to what Tesla does next.

TSII Distribution — Quick Facts

Pays: weekly.
First paid: June 2025 — every payment since is charted below.
What it is: daily leveraged exposure to Tesla (TSLA) targeted between 1.05x and 1.50x (currently operated around 1.25x), with covered calls sold on part of the position for weekly income.
Fee: 0.99% gross expense ratio (issuer fund page).
Tax character: recent distributions estimated ~98% return of capital per the fund's 19a-1 notices.

Growth & Income here means both dials at once: more than 1x exposure to TSLA and a payout — funded by selling calls on only part of the position, so meaningful upside stays live. Leverage in the 1.05x-1.50x range is mild by leveraged-fund standards but still amplifies Tesla's drawdowns.

TSII Payment Schedule & Next Ex-Dividend Date

Recent Ex-Dividend Dates	Distribution / Share

"Next expected" is estimated from TSII'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.

The Third Way to Milk TSLA

Tesla income now comes in three architectures: option premium (TSLY — full covered-call conversion, most income, least upside), leveraged formula payouts (TSLW — 1.2x swaps, checks by formula), and TSII's hybrid: modest leverage plus calls on only a slice, keeping most of the rally.

Three funds, one stock, three different fates in every market regime — the overlay on the compare tool is genuinely instructive. Mind the ~98% return-of-capital classification with the Cost Basis Calculator.

When Is TSII's Next Ex-Dividend Date?

TSII 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 TSII's actual payment rhythm. Remember: you must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout.

TSII's Record So Far

TSII — the REX TSLA Growth & Income ETF — launched in June 2025 and has paid weekly since June 2025. The chart above shows every declared distribution.

Both Dials at Once

The income category's usual bargain is brutal: the bigger the payout, the less of the stock's future you keep. TSII tries to split the difference — mild leverage (1.05x-1.50x) pushes participation above 1x while calls on a portion of the book fund the weekly check. The cost is symmetric: drawdowns arrive amplified, and the income is thinner than a full conversion like TSLY's.

Reading the Chart Honestly

With most distributions classified as return of capital, the payment line above is better read as a chosen payout policy than as earnings. The real scoreboard is total return versus plain TSLA and versus the alternatives — run it on the compare tool.
