YieldMax has expanded its fund lineup with the launch of the YieldMax XOM Option Income Strategy ETF (NYSE Arca: XOMO). The actively managed fund seeks to generate monthly income by selling/writing call options on Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM).
XOMO aims to harvest compelling yields while retaining capped participation in the price gains of XOM. The fund does not invest directly in XOM.
“While large cap energy stocks often provide dividends, investors are often looking for downside protection,” said VettaFi’s director of research Todd Rosenbluth. “This new fund can help.”
ZEGA Financial actively manages the ETF. It carries an expense ratio of 0.99%.
