Feb 5, 2026	Feb 6, 2026	$0.0752	+15.7%	The distribution increase was driven by elevated implied volatility in AMZN following its fourth-quarter earnings miss in early February 2026, which created a more favorable options premium environment for the fund. This heightened volatility allowed the covered-call strategy to collect higher premiums, enabling the 15.7% payout increase despite the stock's subsequent 3.31% price recovery from its mid-February pivot bottom.

Jan 22, 2026	Jan 23, 2026	$0.0606	-36.8%	The AMZY distribution decrease was driven by a compressed options premium environment, as Amazon's stock price remained relatively stable and lacked the high implied volatility required to generate significant call option income. With no major earnings catalysts or market-wide volatility spikes to inflate option premiums during this period, the fund collected lower premiums to distribute to shareholders.
Jan 15, 2026	Jan 16, 2026	$0.0959	+46.4%	The AMZY distribution increased by 46.4% because Amazon's stock price recovery following the February 13, 2026, pivot bottom, combined with elevated market uncertainty, drove higher implied volatility. This environment allowed the fund to collect significantly larger options premiums, as higher volatility increases the cost of the call options sold against the underlying Amazon shares.

Jan 2, 2026	Jan 5, 2026	$0.0651	-17.1%	The AMZY payout decrease was driven by a compressed options premium environment, as Amazon's stock price remained relatively stable or lacked the high implied volatility required to generate larger premiums. With implied volatility suppressed compared to the prior period, the fund collected less income from selling covered calls, resulting in the 17.1 percent reduction in the monthly distribution.

How does AMZY generate income?

Sells call options on AMZN to generate monthly income. Payout tracks Amazon's implied volatility.

You must own shares before market open on the ex-dividend date to receive each distribution. The record date is typically 1 business day after the ex-date, and payment follows within a week.

Payout variability is driven primarily by AMZN's implied volatility — when IV is high (e.g., around earnings or market events), option premiums rise, producing larger distributions. When IV compresses, payouts shrink.
