- By the record: since February 15, 2024 the fund has made 109 payments; $5.85 per share arrived over the last twelve months, in 53 checks, down 22% from the $7.48 of the year before — roughly 52% of the recent ~$11.17 share price. The single largest payment, $0.677, dates to June 2024.
- Pays: weekly — typically going ex-dividend on Wednesdays.
- First paid: February 2024, alongside its whole-family sibling YMAX.
- What it is: a fund of funds holding the YieldMax single-stock ETFs for the Magnificent Seven — Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and Tesla — pooling their option income weekly.
- vs. YMAX: YMAX holds the whole YieldMax universe; YMAG concentrates on Big Tech's seven giants only.
- The pattern so far: steadier than any single sibling, drifting with Big Tech's collective volatility — recent weekly checks in the 7-8 cent range.
YMAG's weekly check is the pooled income of the underlying YieldMax funds it holds; layered fees apply, and every holding shares the same option-income physics.

| Recent Ex-Dividend Dates | Distribution / Share |
|---|
"Next expected" is estimated from YMAG'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.
YMAG answers a specific wish: Big Tech option income without picking which giant's volatility to harvest. It owns the YieldMax funds for all seven — so Tesla's wild week and Apple's quiet one average into a single pooled payout. The result is visibly smoother than any individual sibling's record, and structurally incapable of escaping the group's shared weather: when Big Tech calms down together, every underlying fund earns less at once.
You pay fees on two layers, and all the family mechanics — capped rallies, kept drawdowns, return-of-capital components — flow through. The backtest above is the honest scoreboard; the family guide explains the machinery.

When Is YMAG's Next Ex-Dividend Date?
YMAG 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 YMAG's actual payment rhythm. Remember: you must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout.
YMAG's Record: Big Tech's Pulse, Weekly
YMAG — the YieldMax Magnificent 7 Fund of Option Income ETFs — has paid every week since February 2024: about $6.78 per share that first year, $7.44 across 2025, and a 2026 pace near 7-8 cents weekly on a share price around $11. Read those numbers as a seismograph of Big Tech volatility — high through the AI frenzy, easing as the giants settled.
The Case For (and Against) Concentration
Against YMAX's everything-basket, YMAG makes a sharper bet: the seven most-traded stocks on earth produce the deepest, richest options markets, so their pooled premium stream is high-quality income. The cost is correlation — the Seven increasingly move as one organism, so YMAG's smoothing is real week to week but thin in a genuine tech storm.
Where YMAG Fits
For someone who wants the YieldMax trade specifically on Big Tech, YMAG is the diversified way in — compare it against single-stock routes like NVDY and the covered-call alternative MAGY (same seven stocks, different machinery). Next expected date on the live calendar.
