High Yields Will Never Be The Same - Here's Why
High-yield investments like BDCs, MLPs, CEFs, and REITs offer substantial dividend yields, often overlooked by retail investors due to a lack of awareness. Option ETFs generate high income by writing options against equities, with some offering extreme yields, like Yieldmax MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF at 113%. These funds are for income generation, not total return or capital appreciation, and require a different evaluation lens than traditional investments.

SPYT: Generating Income From S&P 500 Exposure
SPYT is an ETF that mimics the S&P 500's daily price while generating income through ATM options. The fund aims to provide a 20% annual dividend yield. The fund's ATM option strategy caps upside potential, leading to underperformance in bull markets compared to traditional ETFs like IVV. SPYT's short history and reliance on return of capital for distributions make its long-term resilience and NAV growth uncertain.

SPYT: When NAV Erosion Undermines An Essentially Sound Options Strategy
The Defiance S&P 500 Target Income ETF (SPYT) offers monthly income and downside protection but caps upside potential, making it ill-suited to bullish markets. The ETF's strategy involves selling call spreads on the S&P 500, aiming for a 20% annualized payout, but it heavily relies on return of capital. Despite achieving its income target, SPYT's market price has significantly lagged behind its underlying asset, IVV, due to its options strategy and resulting high return of capital.

XDTE Vs. SPYT, Which 0DTE ETF To Pick?
SPYT and XDTE ETFs both write 0DTE calls on the S&P 500, but SPYT uses call spreads, while XDTE uses slightly OTM calls. XDTE has outperformed SPYT since March 2024, delivering superior total returns and higher distribution yields. This suggests XDTE has a superior strategy. However, due to extended market valuations, I remain cautious on both ETFs and rate SPYT a hold.
