Ex-Date	Pay Date	Amount	vs Prior	Why it changed
Mar 19, 2026	Mar 20, 2026	$0.8018	+0.2%
Mar 12, 2026	Mar 13, 2026	$0.7999	+67.3%	The 67.3 percent increase in the PLTY distribution was driven by elevated implied volatility in Palantir, which saw significant price fluctuations between 149.10 and 156.60 dollars during the period. This heightened volatility environment allowed the fund to capture larger options premiums, as evidenced by PLTR consistently appearing among the most active options with high trading interest throughout mid-March 2026.
Mar 5, 2026	Mar 6, 2026	$0.4781	+21.6%	The payout increase was driven by heightened market volatility in PLTR, which experienced a 5.03% daily price fluctuation between $149.10 and $156.60. This elevated implied volatility environment allowed the fund to collect significantly higher options premiums, resulting in the 21.6% distribution increase.

Jan 2, 2026	Jan 5, 2026	$0.5130	-48.3%	The PLTY distribution decreased because Palantir experienced a sharp mid-January price decline and a subsequent stabilization that compressed implied volatility from the elevated levels seen during periods of 3-5 percent daily swings. As the options premium environment cooled following this volatility contraction, the income generated from selling covered calls against PLTR shares naturally declined, resulting in the 48.3 percent payout reduction.

How does PLTY generate income?

Sells call options on PLTR to generate monthly income. Payout reflects Palantir's options premium environment.

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 PLTR'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.
