It’s an actively managed ETF. Yet, its expense ratio sits at just 0.35%.

The ETF is run by managers with over 60 years of combined investing experience. They employ a bottom-up fundamental research with proprietary risk-adjusted stock rankings. Then, they overlay out-of-the-money option call writing to generate monthly income.

Performance

While the ETF pays a healthy dividend, it gives up a fair amount of capital appreciation compared to the broader indexes.

That becomes quite evident when you look at the 1-year returns.

However, over the long run, things are a bit more balanced.
