Yield Max ETFs (especially MSTY)

Hello everyone,

Is anyone from the community already riding this horse and can say something about it? A W-8BEN form will then probably be necessary. What risks are there apart from the vola, which is intentional?

A fund volume of over 2 billion...

Thank you and have a nice Sunday!

@loginvest Are you talking about the "YieldMax™ Big Tech Option Income ETF"?

@financial_ninja_2048 Nope, the provider here will be IncomeShares. You can buy via Scalable or Traiding212. They started with such ETNs for the European market last year. They are planning a strategy ETN with options with distributions from May.

There are some on Reddit who have this in their custody account, then just via brokers abroad, hence W-8BEN etc., or is this generally not allowed?

@MrMo I would check beforehand whether this is permitted. Are they German who have them in their depot? I know that ib, for example, does not allow this for Germans

@Tuffbet As far as I understand it, you have more work with the tax, as nothing is paid automatically and you have to take care of the DBA with the form yourself. But otherwise it's comparable to some CEFs, for example, which can only be bought via other trading platforms here.

@Tuffbet It is of course permitted to buy and own USITS. But not tradable in the EU, as this USITS information is not provided by the US issuers.

And you have to take care of the tax yourself
