HCAL and HUTS yeild

Hello, I have been looking into the two ETF’s. I understand that this is a leverage play i.e. 25%. What I do not understand is why are the monthly distributions so high? I did the math on both ETF’s added all the yields up added 25% and it should not be yielding at current percentage. This is not a covered call ETF. Is there return on capital? What am I missing here?

You are exactly right, there is return of capital on both the funds. In fact for 2023 the bulk of the distributions have been return of capital. I've attached a link below to Hamilton's site where it goes over the distributions.

Thank you, Dan, just a follow up question? Is this common for ETF's and will this not erode the NAV? Would you consider investing in these funds?
