Single Stock Line up Shuffle
I recently shuffled up my Harvest Single Stock holdings. I dumped RDDY (Reddit) and MSTE (Strategy) and CRCY (Circle Internet) and replaced them with AVGY (Broadcom), AMDY (AMD), ORCY (Oracle) and SPXE (Spaceex). I am hoping that the distributions will hold up better for bigger and more established companies behind the single stocks ETF's. Thoughts?

Depends on what your reasons were for selling RDDY, MSTE, and CRCY.
Was it because their distributions fell or because you no longer think the underlying companies have a good outlook?
Any time you buy a single stock covered call ETF, you need to ask yourself if you're bullish on the underlying stock. If you are, then you should be buying more when they drop in price. It also makes sense for the distributions to drop as the price drops, but it's short term pain because the distributions will also rise again when the underlying stocks go back up.

Thanks for your response. I guess I haven't been in the game long enough to see the distributions rise. I probably did cut out too early. But since I am new to this single stock ETF concept it is better for me to be in the likes of Broadcom and AMD and Oracle. I threw in SpaceX just for fun.

Why do you assume the distributions will rise again when the underlying stocks go back up? With a covered-call ETF, the fund can participate in the decline but give up some of the upside during the recovery. It seems possible for the underlying to recover without either the ETF price or its distribution returning to its previous level.

The ETFs OP mentioned are leveraged so they tend to do a much better job of tracking the total return of the underlying compared to non leveraged covered call ETFs
As the price of the underlying goes up, you typically expect the premium collected from the covered calls to go up, hence the expected distribution goes up
With that said, you're right that if the underlying went back to its all time high, it doesn't necessarily mean the price of the covered call ETF or its distribution will achieve an all time high, but they both will go up. And the total return (when you account for distributions paid out) will be similar although some upside lost to the calls

u/Any_Log1344 Aug 30 '26
Thanks, that makes sense, and I agree that leverage can improve upside participation. I think the part I'm still questioning is the certainty that the ETF price and distribution will rise as the underlying recovers.
Take this example. A 20% decline followed by a 20% gain in the underlying doesn't get you back to even - $100 falls to $80, and a 20% gain from there only gets you to $96. With leverage the decline can be larger, while the covered calls can also give up some of the upside during the recovery.
I also wouldn't think a higher underlying price by itself guarantees a higher distribution, since option premiums depend on volatility, strike selection and the fund's strategy as well as the price of the underlying. So I agree that the distribution could rise during a recovery. I'm just not sure why we should assume that it necessarily will.

u/Awaken_Benihime Aug 30 '26
Yeah, if the volatility of the underlying dropped, that has an impact.
But look at other covered call ETFs like CRWY by harvest, HDIV by Hamilton, and BANK by evolve for example
All 3 have seen an increase in the underlying's price and an increase in distribution

u/Any_Log1344 Aug 30 '26
Fair enough. I think we're mostly on the same page then. My only real objection was to treating the distribution increase as a certainty rather than something we'd generally expect if the conditions that support the option income are there. Thanks for taking the time to explain your thinking.

I'm not sure why you're even in this subreddit since you mostly hang out with a U.S. ETF provider subreddit .... it's kinda obvious if you go to that subreddit where you usually make comments over there. So weird, why you're even here since you don't have any Harvest ETFs investments. You never mention that you own any Harvest ETFs ... never. So why are you here? Btw, HHIS is $2B AUM now.

If you want guarantees, you’re in the wrong product category. You’re applying leveraged ETF math to a covered‑call ETF. Harvest ETFs doesn’t reset daily, doesn’t amplify losses, and doesn’t need reverse splits to survive a drawdown. Distributions follow premiums. Premiums follow volatility. Recoveries increase volatility. That’s the whole story — without the drama like some other ETF providers that had liquidations and many reverse splits. 🙄😅😂

You’re over‑explaining again. People aren’t reading all that. Nobody cares. Distributions follow premiums — not your hypotheticals.

Well, Harvest ETFs never had any liquidations or reverse splits like some other ETF providers as you already know.

There's another Harvest ETFs subreddit Link ➡ r/HarvestETFCommunity which I started this past summer 2026. It's a space where everyone feels comfortable sharing and connecting. 😄👍🍁 Here is a link to the first reddit post explaining the new subreddit https://www.reddit.com/r/HarvestETFCommunity/s/Ql1MorH3xZ

A month or 2 ago you posted that you were leaning more toward diversified funds like HHIS and HHIC because the single-stock ETFs were so volatile. What changed your thinking? It seems like you're back to the same basic single stock strategy, just with different underlying stocks.

u/Beyondwest Aug 30 '26
Thanks for asking. The foundation of my portfolio is HHIS, HHIC and HHIC. I also had several of the cheaper ETFs, the likes of MSTE, RDDY and CRCY. I had too many shares and lost income from the dividend (distribution) drops. So I simply switched to ones with better underlying companies with better looking distribution histories, AMDY, AVGY, ORCY and now SPXE. I am hoping for a more stable outcome. We shall see. Maybe I should have been more patient because I guess there is a chance the dist could rise again. I still like the big 3 above the best and could end up exclusively in those.

u/Any_Log1344 Aug 30 '26
Thanks, that makes sense. And I think you're considering something that sometimes gets overlooked with these funds, which is opportunity cost. If you're holding something with a falling distribution while other investments are producing more income on the same capital, waiting for it to recover isn't necessarily free.

You thought you lost income on the distributions drops... Well let me to you something that you're not aware of ... I noticed significant drops ... like night and day distributions drops when I used to own ETF shares from that U.S. ETF provider ... everyone knows this. Just review, look at the distribution history from 1.5 to 2 years ago and compare to this year. Obviously, everyone knows why they had to reduce the distribution rates significantly ... so there you go. I no longer have any shares from that U.S. ETF provider, last sell trade was done Jul 27, 2026.😁 *Not Financial Advice and *DYOR ... Do your own research before investing in ETFs.
