JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (JEPI-Q)

Gives investors exposure to US equity markets, but alongside income generation through an options overlay strategy where they sell call options out of the money call options. Yield is about 7.5%, fantastic. MER is 35 bps. 

However, if you look at the returns, you'll see better returns from the underlying markets such as the S&P 500. Great to use if you need the income. But historically, covered call trades off upside from the underlying securities.

She picked it to start the year, but it hasn't performed well in the first six months. But she will stick with it. She downsized her JEPI holding. In 2023, it was -3.5% but outpaced the S&P's -18%. YTD, it's up 5%, though lags the S&P. JEPI limits each sector weighting to 17.5%, which means half the exposure to tech compared to the S&P. If the market keeps rising with the yield from selling calls, you'll like end up 8-10%.

Risks of owning a covered call ETF like JEPI is the limitation of participating in an up rally. 
For an attractive dividend, an investor gives up potential ome upside benefits and some total return over the long run. 
Covered call ETFs tend to do best in a sideways market. 
Otherwise, we think JEPI is a solid covered-call ETF considering the attractive yield and underlying holdings.
