Q: I hold shares in MSTY along with other Harvest ETFs. I have received the monthly distributions for all of them except MSTY, even though it was payable on Jan 5. My broker, BMO, says it's because they haven't set the reinvestment price for their DRIP. It's now almost two weeks past when the distribution and DRIP shares normally show up. Does any know if this an issue with Harvest or BMO?
