Quick context on MSTY’s monthly distributions
- High but variable yield – MSTY writes call options on MSTR; the premium it captures—hence the dividend—fluctuates with MSTR’s price action and implied volatility.
- Tax treatment – Most of the payout is ordinary income, but check your 1099-DIV for any return-of-capital allocation that would instead lower cost basis.
- Expectation setting – April’s dividend was $1.63, May jumped to $2.37, and June has dropped to $1.47. Plan your cash flow assuming this variability rather than the headline yield alone.
