Highest Yield ETFs
Ranked by trailing-12-month distribution yield (cash distributions ÷ current price). This is NOT the SEC yield; high trailing yields, especially on option-income funds, often include return of capital and can fall. Funds that use leverage (including those targeting e.g. 1.2x a stock's weekly return) or target an inverse return are excluded unless you include them with the leverage filter. YieldMax option-income funds are listed in their own category (/category/yieldmax) rather than here. Funds under $50M excluded.
Sparklines show the trailing 12 months of dividend-adjusted closes, through Oct 23, 2026.
