FTHI is a buy-write income ETF that invests primarily in U.S.-listed equities while writing (selling) call options on the S&P 500 Index to generate additional cash flow. The fund collects option premiums on these written calls, which may be distributed to shareholders on a monthly basis, making it designed for investors seeking regular income alongside equity exposure.
As a derivative income ETF, FTHI employs the buy-write (or covered call) strategy, a defined-outcome approach that typically caps upside participation in exchange for the premium income generated. The fund is classified as mid-cap with approximately $2.27 billion in assets and has been trading since its 2014 listing, operating within the broader income-focused ETF segment that competes with similar S&P 500 covered call products.
