AMZY Ex-Dividend Date & Dividend Calculator

YieldMax AMZN Option Income Str (AMZY) is an ETF that funds its dividend through covered-call option premium, paying a weekly distribution at a yield of 24.5%. In exchange for a high payout, upside is capped and there's a risk of NAV erosion. Evaluate it on long-run total return (dividend + price), not short-term income alone.

The distribution amount is a variable-dividend structure that changes month to month with option-market volatility, so past yield does not guarantee future payments. Before investing, read the covered-call ETF risk guide and the complete dividend-types guide.

Strategy structure — AMZY, part of the YieldMax lineup, replicates AMZN's (a leading e-commerce / cloud (AWS) name) price movement synthetically through an options combination rather than buying the stock itself.

Payout mechanics — AMZY's distributions come entirely from options premium on a weekly basis. Yield currently reads 24.5% (as of 2026.09.09), with per-payment amounts that has swung sharply from one payment to the next (variability score 0.34). Based on recent payment history, AMZY is treated as a variable-dividend name going forward. The per-payment amount is about $0.0909, paid roughly 52 times a year. This figure is recalculated every period, so it isn't guaranteed to hold going forward — it's a reference point based on past payment history. When making decisions about AMZY, it's safer to treat the $0.0909 figure above as one reference among several rather than the sole basis.

Risk to watch — Because AMZY is 100% exposed to AMZN with no offsetting positions, both the distribution and the NAV can move sharply together on AMZN-specific news.
