Our read on YYYM

ETF.net Research

In short

FAmplify's closed-end-fund playbook, pointed at munis: one ticker holding roughly 30 tax-exempt muni CEFs, screened for yield, discount to NAV, and liquidity. You get other managers' bond books, and their fee stack, in a single trade.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks results generally corresponding to the price and yield performance of the Nasdaq Municipal Bond CEF High Income Index. That index selects tax-exempt municipal bond closed-end funds while prioritizing yield, discount to NAV, and liquidity.

Why people hold it

  • Does the screening most investors never attempt: a rules-based index ranks municipal closed-end funds on yield, discount to net asset value, and liquidity, then holds about 30 of them.amplifyetfs.com
  • Federally tax-advantaged income is the stated design goal, since everything inside is a tax-exempt municipal bond CEF run by an outside manager.amplifyetfs.comamplifyetfs.com 2
  • Discounts are a feature, not an accident: the methodology leans toward CEFs trading below NAV, so a dollar buys more of the underlying bond portfolio than sticker price suggests.amplifyetfs.com
  • Not a first attempt. Amplify has run the same discounted-CEF screen in a multi-asset income ETF since 2013; this one narrows the machinery to municipals.amplifyetfs.cometfstrategy.com

Worth knowing

  • All-in cost is 2.78% a year against roughly 0.30% for the typical muni fund. In a fund of funds, the underlying CEFs' fees stack on top of the manager's.amplifyetfs.com
  • Closed-end funds trade on sentiment as well as bonds, so the discounts this index hunts can widen as easily as they close, adding a layer of price swing over the muni market itself.amplifyetfs.com
  • Launched in 2026, small and thinly traded, so there is no long record and execution costs weigh more than in giants like VTEB or MUB.
