The correct answer is

MAK

Each letter in every cluster decreases by 3 alphabetic positions (i.e. −3) compared to the corresponding letter in the previous cluster.

1st letter: Y (−3) V (−3) S (−3) P (−3) M

2nd letter: M (−3) J (−3) G (−3) D (−3) A

3rd letter: W (−3) T (−3) Q (−3) N (−3) K

So the next cluster is MAK.
