# YieldMax Raises YQQQ Weekly Distribution 35.13% to $0.0577 By Enna Lee Canonical URL: https://www.tokenpost.com/news/investing/49193 Published: 2026-11-05T09:53:23.000Z Updated: 2026-11-05T09:53:23.000Z Section: Investing > The payout is up from $0.0427 the prior week. Payment is scheduled for Nov. 6, with Nov. 5 set as the ex-dividend and record date. YieldMax set a $0.0577 weekly distribution for the YieldMax Short N100 Option Income Strategy ETF (YQQQ), 35.13% above the fund’s prior $0.0427 payout. The issuer announced the amount at 6:55 a.m. ET (11:55 UTC) Wednesday, Nov. 4. The new payout is $0.0150 higher than the previous week’s distribution, which YieldMax declared Oct. 28 in its [earlier YQQQ distribution announcement](). Shareholders must be on record Nov. 5, which is also the ex-dividend date. Payment is scheduled for Friday, Nov. 6. The fund’s distribution rate was 30.59% at the Nov. 3 market close. Its 30-day SEC yield was 3.07% for the period ended Oct. 31. The distribution rate annualizes the latest payout against the fund’s most recent net asset value; it does not measure total return. The declared payment alone should not be read as the fund’s income or yield. YQQQ seeks weekly income through put spreads tied to the Invesco QQQ ETF (QQQ), while maintaining inverse exposure to QQQ’s share price. Distributions may vary and are not guaranteed. ## Links in this article - [earlier YQQQ distribution announcement](https://www.tokenpost.com/news/investing/43050)
