Our read on YBST
DA one-ticker wrapper on the GraniteShares YieldBOOST suite: funds that sell puts on leveraged single-stock ETFs to harvest outsized premiums, spread across many names instead of riding one.
YBST seeks current income as its primary objective and exposure to a diversified group of YieldBOOST ETFs as its secondary objective. It is actively managed and invests primarily in YieldBOOST ETFs whose options strategies reference U.S.-listed securities.
Why people hold it
- One ticker holds the whole YieldBOOST lineup, so income is sourced from many single-stock options strategies rather than one name's volatility.graniteshares.com
- Premiums are large because the options sit on leveraged single-stock ETFs; each trade pairs a near-the-money short put with a further out-of-the-money long put.graniteshares.com
- Income is distributed weekly rather than monthly, per the fund's own documents.graniteshares.com
- GraniteShares charges 0.29% to run the fund itself, in line with the category's cheapest options-income funds such as PAPI.sec.gov
Worth knowing
- All-in cost is 1.38%: the 0.29% management fee stacked on 0.99% of underlying-fund fees. Top-graded peers like PAPI and ROCY run under 0.40% total.sec.gov
- Distributions can include return of capital, meaning part of a payout may be your own money coming back rather than earned income.graniteshares.com
- Young and thinly traded: it launched in December 2025, so the record is short and spreads can run wider than in large income ETFs.
