How Many YMAG Shares for $500 or $1,000 a Month?

At $3.80 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 1,581 YMAG shares, about $16,427 at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $10.39. $1,000 a month takes about 3,162 shares, about $32,853. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.

YieldMax Magnificent 7 Fund of Option Income ETF (YMAG) pays $0.073 a share weekly, $3.80 a year, a 36.54% run-rate yield at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $10.39. It has made 122 distribution payments since 2024.

At today’s rate of $0.073 weekly and the last close of $10.39, this is what YMAG pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:

You holdEach weekPer month (avg)Per year

100 shares$7.30$31.63$379.60

3,162 shares ($1,000/mo)$230.83$1,000.25$12,002.95

With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 YMAG shares reinvest into 0.70 new shares each payment, about 43.9 new shares a year at today’s price and rate, and each new share collects the next payment too. To DRIP one whole new share every payment you need about 143 shares. Here the share count grows fast partly because the price keeps falling: more shares, each worth less, so count the shares and their value together. See the snowball over 10 to 30 years with YMAG’s own history in the YMAG DRIP calculator.

The payout is not the return. In the 12 months to Nov 13, 2026, YMAG paid $5.04 a share while its NAV per share fell from $14.57 to $10.39. Distributions exceeded total return by $4.18 a share, so part of every payment above was your own money coming back.

YMAG Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range

38/100Below its usual yieldvs its 2-yr history
  • YMAG yields 36.54% today, at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $10.39.
  • Its own 2-year median is 38.79%, so today’s yield is below its usual level.
  • No steady norm: its payout moves with option income, so it has no steady yield norm. So this reads today’s yield against its own 2-year history as it is.
Since Feb 2024: lowest to highest month-end yield
24.84% low99.35% high
Blue mark = today, grey = its 2-year median. A higher yield than usual means a lower price against the payout.

Where today ranks in its own history is in the paid report

How it works. Each month-end over the last 2 years gives one yield: the regular payment then, times payments a year, over that day’s close. Specials are left out. 50 means today’s yield sits right at its usual level. A lower score means the yield is below its usual level, so the price is high against the payout. A higher score means the yield is above its usual level. On price alone a payer stays between 15 and 85. Steady raisers get a few points back. It reads the past, not the future.

When Is YMAG’s Next Distribution? Ex-Date and Pay Date After November 2026

YMAG has not declared its next distribution yet. By its usual rhythm of about 7 days between ex-dates, the next ex-date falls around Nov 19, 2026, with the cash around Nov 20, 2026. An estimate, not a promise: only the declaration makes it final. The latest one, $0.073 a share, went ex on Nov 12, 2026.

  • Ex-dates: about every 7 days (weekly)
  • Payment: usually about 1 days after the ex-date

Before YMAG declares, its YMAG next payout estimate is on its YieldMax tracker page. Every payer going ex-dividend this week is on the dividend calendar.

How Often Does YMAG Pay?

YMAG pays weekly, 52 times a year. The ex-date comes about every 7 days, and the cash usually lands about 1 days later.

YMAG vs Similar YieldMax Funds (CONY, DRAY...)

Against the 10 YieldMax funds closest to YMAG in fund size, YMAG’s 36.54% run-rate yield is below the group’s middle yield of 43.51%. A higher yield than the group is not a bonus by itself: in income funds it often comes with a faster-falling share price, so read it next to the NAV trend and the rating.

More Dividend Lists and Tools

How this page is built: the rate is the latest regular distribution per share; run-rate yield = rate × payments per year ÷ last close (Nov 13, 2026), never a trailing 12-month total, which lags after a raise and hides a cut. Specials and one-off payments never count in the rate; a payer whose regular payments differ in size is annualized over its last full cycle of regular payments. Raise streak = consecutive calendar years with a higher amount per payment than the year before; years without a cut = years in which the amount per payment held within 1%. The Dividend Safety Rating reads 7 visible lines: coverage, streak, raise pace and yield range for dividend stocks; NAV trend, NAV funding and payout stability for income funds. Similar payers = the same sector or fund group, nearest in market value or fund size. Payments, prices and filings come from DRIPCALC’s price and dividend database. History is not a forecast. This is data, not investment advice.
