QYLD: Why The Options Strategy This Fund Uses May Fail Over The Next Decade
I am downgrading the Global X NASDAQ 100 Covered Call ETF from 'Sell' to 'Strong Sell' due to its chronic underperformance vs. newer, more sophisticated covered-call ETFs like QQQI. QYLD's rigid at-the-money call strategy consistently limits upside and fails to boost income during volatile markets, resulting in weak total returns. Actively managed funds like QQQI adjust strike prices and buy out-of-the-money calls, capturing more upside and providing higher income and better capital preservation.
