Catering to the short attention span of retail investors in Michael Saylor’s bitcoin (BTC) treasury company MicroStrategy (MSTR), a new fund manager is advertising weekly payouts plus extra leverage . Although monthly payouts have been available in YieldMax’s ETF MSTY since February 2024, Roundhill wants to increase that cadence 4X with its upcoming fund, MSTW. In addition to weekly payouts, the Roundhill MSTR WeeklyPay ETF will also leverage synthetic derivatives to hopefully surpass MSTR’s calendar week price return by an extra 20%. To accomplish these feats, the new ETF will obtain investment exposure exceeding the net assets in its fund with lots of leverage. Investors will suffer magnified losses in bearish market conditions: at least 1.2% in losses for every 1% weekly decline in the price of MSTR, plus the fund’s operating and financing costs, and trading commissions. In its Form N-1A registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), ...
