1. These ETF derivative funds are getting out of hand

Roundhill is one of the companies offering these things, there are others. You can buy an ETF that only hold the MAG 7 companies, and pays a WEEKLY dividend. While they're supposed to be making money on volatility, the underlying value falls for many months. So you get a pile of dividends and a capital loss. Maybe that's the goal? Paper losses to write off?
