Income powered by the S&P 500

Did you know icon

Did you know?

Covered-call strategies don't try to beat the market; they aim to get paid. By selling call options on the S&P 500, this fund collects premiums that are paid out as monthly income, on top of the dividends from the shares it holds. That income can be especially valuable when markets move sideways or fall: in 2022, when the S&P 500 dropped -18.1%, the S&P 500 Covered Call strategy saw a drawdown of just -3.5%, as the premiums helped cushion the decline. The trade-off is capped upside in strongly rising markets, which makes it a tool for steady income rather than maximum growth. (Source: J.P.
