YMAG YieldMax Magnificent 7 Fund of Option Income ETFs
YieldMax Magnificent 7 Fund of Option Income ETFs shows several signals that historically correlate with elevated dividend risk.
Why we rate it 4.7
- Very high yield of 41.09% — often signals stress or a structural pay-out (covered call ETFs, mREITs, etc.)
- Payout ratio not applicable for ETFs — ETF distributions are dictated by the fund's underlying holdings
- ETF structure provides built-in diversification — single-name dividend cuts have limited impact
- Small-cap scale — dividend stability less assured during downturns
Where YMAG ranks
We compute the same 0–10 safety score across 53 dividend-paying stocks and ETFs. Here's where YMAG lands inside that universe.
The universe is curated to the most-searched US dividend payers. We'll expand it as the data layer grows; sector percentiles only appear when we have at least 5 comparable peers.
The two questions a safety score doesn't answer
A safety score tells you how durable YMAG's payout looks. It does not tell you what you keep after tax, or whether something else does the same job better.
On tax: what you actually pocket depends on whether YMAG dividends are qualified — qualified distributions are taxed at 0%, 15%, or 20%, while ordinary ones are taxed at your full marginal rate, a gap that can reach 22 percentage points of the income on the same headline yield.
On substitutes: if YMAG's 4.7/10 score is lower than you want, see YMAG alternatives — same-sector ETFs ranked by how closely they match YMAG on both yield and safety, so you can see what a swap actually costs you.

4 daily snapshots over the trailing 48 days · range 4.7–4.7
Every Infnits dividend safety score is computed from the same factors (yield zone, payout ratio, trend vs 5-year average, instrument type, size). The history above is recomputed directly from each day's fundamentals snapshot, so the line reflects how the underlying signals actually moved — not retroactive smoothing.
About YieldMax Magnificent 7 Fund of Option Income ETFs
The fund is a “fund of funds,” meaning that it primarily invests its assets in the shares of other ETFs, rather than in securities of individual companies. Under normal circumstances, the fund will be nearly fully invested in the seven Underlying YieldMax™ ETFs; provided that for tax purposes, instead of investing in a particular Underlying YieldMax™ ETF, the fund may invest directly in substantially the same instruments held by that same Underlying YieldMax™ ETF. The fund is non-diversified.
How we score dividend safety
The Infnits dividend safety score is a 0–10 rating derived from yield zone, payout ratio (when applicable), yield trend versus 5-year average, instrument type, and company size. Each factor is independently transparent — see the reasons above for exactly which factors contributed to YMAG's score.
