🔉Case Study: Passive Income Advanced Strategy Made Simple
The quest for passive income has led many to the doors of ETFs.
Global X ETFs, boasting $43 billion in assets across 108 ETFs, has unveiled its latest offering: the Global X Dow 30 Covered Call & Growth ETF DYLG 0.00%↑.
This fund employs the covered call writing technique, a strategy where call options on owned securities are sold, generating an additional income stream.
This approach is especially appealing to investors looking for yields beyond Treasuries, particularly as interest rate hikes begin to plateau.
The Mechanics Behind the Strategy
Covered call writing isn't just about selling call options.
It's a nuanced strategy that offers potential income while also capping potential stock gains.
The new ETF, DYLG 0.00%↑, tracks the Dow Jones Industrial Average, but with a twist.
Instead of the usual market capitalization weighting, it's weighted by stock price.
While this strategy might limit the upside of stock gains, it can offer substantial income, especially when a significant volume of options is sold.
Comparing Covered Call ETFs
The Global X Nasdaq 100 Covered Call & Growth ETF QYLG 0.00%↑ offers a glimpse into the potential of this strategy.
With a 12-month trailing yield of about 6%, it's evident that the strategy can be lucrative. Both DYLG 0.00%↑ and QYLG 0.00%↑ write call options on half of their stock holdings, striking a balance between income generation and capital appreciation.
Expert Insights and Economic Outlook
Rohan Reddy, the Director of Research at Global X ETFs, underscores the importance of a sophisticated approach to income investing.
With the Federal Reserve's rate hikes potentially nearing their end and the increasing likelihood of the economy avoiding a recession, covered call ETFs might be the answer for those seeking higher yields.
However, it's essential to remember that these ETFs, while promising, also come with the stock market's inherent volatility.
Costs and Competition
While the DYLG 0.00%↑ passive fund's strategy is promising, its expense ratio of 0.60% is a point of contention.
When compared to its actively managed counterparts like the JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF JEPI 0.00%↑ and the JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF JEPQ 0.00%↑, which have expense ratios of just 0.35%, it's on the pricier side.
This cost difference has played a role in the JPMorgan funds' popularity, attracting over $13 billion in inflows this year.

The Alfa Hedge Data Analysis was developed by Zurique Capital, to identify the Markets Cycles (through ETFs) combining:
Market Cycle Phase, with this data we analyze the present situation of the Market.
Historical positive volatility (highest probability of Long-Term uptrends), with this data we analyze the past.
Reward/Risk Ratio and Expectancy ratio, with this data we analyze what to expect in the future based on statistics (not astrology or opinions).
This analysis are not investment recommendations and investors must do their own research (please read the Disclaimer section).
We invest our own money and share our Portfolio with Premium Subscribers.

* DYLG 0.00%↑ started on Aug,02, so, there is not enough data to do our analysis.
** JEPQ 0.00%↑ is also a “young” ETF, there is not enough data on our monthly time frame, so we adapted to a weekly time frame analysis.
Extra Data: Dividend Yield
DYLG 0.00%↑: n/a (also no data yet)
QYLG 0.00%↑: 5.26%
JEPI 0.00%↑: 10.06%
JEPQ 0.00%↑: 11.65%
Based on our Market Cycle analysis, we emphasize trend capturing.
High dividend assets may show weaker stats, but their relevance varies.
For investors with ample capital, a 70% income-focused portfolio is ideal, complemented by a 30% trend-following strategy.
For those still accumulating, dividends shouldn't be your main focus. There are faster growth strategies.
In case (1), JEPQ 0.00%↑ is the best alternative. in case (2) QYLG 0.00%↑ would be the better option.
However, note: neither of these two assets are in our current portfolio.
