Here is what really happened when comparing MSTY with IBIT adjusting for dividends from May 7 (day before May 8 ex-dividend date) through Aug 7. https://www.barchart.com/etfs-funds/quotes/MSTY/interactive-chart And, if you think those numbers are wrong, https://totalrealreturns.com/n/MSTY,IBIT?start=2025-05-07 What's a ~20% difference among friends? Your numbers aren't just wrong, they're "Walking Eagle" wrong.
LOL even with your skewed numbers MSTY wins! In reality, IBIT isn't even close lol. This is simple math using basic pnl and the actual dividend amounts: MSTY Start date 26-Feb-2024 8-Aug-2025 Price 22.49 Investment $100,000 Shares 4,446 Unrealized gains/loss -$15,518.01 Dividends received $181,370.83 Yield 181.37% NAV $265,853 Monthly income $10,668.87 IBIT Start date 26-Feb-2024 8-Aug-2025 Price 31.12 Investment $100,000 Shares 3,213 Unrealized gains/loss $113,110.54
Again, for the period you created this thread about, https://totalrealreturns.com/n/MSTY,IBIT?start=2025-05-07 The result clearly shows IBIT substantially beat MSTY.

OK so you're up a couple grand but BTC is up 17 grand. MSTY is still reducing it's dividend and still dropping in price
Look at the actual numbers lol. Every time you argue about this is another car payment lost in the wind for you.

Car Payment. LOL...Only poor people make car payments. Now you are going back to feb 2024 LOL We were discussing from May when you jumped on the high yield bandwagon. Look at your account balance. I'll bet it's lower than when you started investing in MSTY.
Exactly! I picked a window where you’d expect IBIT or Bitcoin to crush it — right in the middle of a short bull run. If you go from inception, it’s not even close. I was looking at practically the worst-case scenario for MSTY… and it still wins.
