A $100,000 stake in QYLD returned 170% over 12 years while QQQ gained 652%, leaving holders with a six-figure gap in realized wealth.
JEPQ and GPIQ use partial option coverage instead of QYLD's 100% overlay, preserving more NAV while sacrificing some monthly income.
QYLD's distributions have dropped 24% since 2021 and its NAV has gone sideways for a decade, quietly undermining the 12% headline yield.
It sounds nuts, but SoFi1 is giving new Active Invest users up to $3,000 in stock for a limited time, and all it takes is a $50 deposit to get started.2 See for yourself (Sponsor)
Twelve years of monthly distributions and a double-digit yield sound attractive. But for long-term holders of the Global X NASDAQ 100 Covered Call ETF (NASDAQ:QYLD), that income has come at a significant cost. The fund has generated plenty of cash, but its share price has barely moved. Compared with simply owning a plain Nasdaq-100 index fund, the opportunity cost now stretches well into six figures on a $100,000 investment.
