Looks like UVXY does issue a K-1. Sorry, I should have
researched and posted instead of looking for the easy way out.
K-1s are mostly associated with futures products...which tend
to be, but are not always commodities.
Next question is whether or not UVXY gains receive section
1256 contracts favorable tax treatment (60/40 long term vs short
term).
What is the ticker symbol
Started small VIX June 21 calls 3.50 and will hope ...

Looks like not all brokers are on the same sheet of music when it comes to 60/40 tax treatment for UVXY.
