Description: QYLD NASDAQ 100 Covered Call January 07, 2026

Global X’s NASDAQ-100 Covered Call ETF (QYLD) seeks to allocate at least 80 % of its assets to the securities that compose the CBOE NASDAQ-100® BuyWrite Index. The index replicates a “buy-write” strategy: it holds the underlying NASDAQ-100 stocks while simultaneously selling one-month at-the-money covered call options on the index, generating option premium income but capping upside participation.

Key metrics (as of the most recent filing) show an annualized distribution yield around 10-12 % and a 30-day implied volatility for the NASDAQ-100 index near 20-25 %, indicating relatively high option premium potential. The fund’s performance is tightly linked to the tech-heavy composition of the NASDAQ-100, making sector concentration in cloud computing, semiconductors, and digital advertising a primary driver of both price appreciation and option premium decay.

Because the strategy is non-diversified and option-premium dependent, its risk profile is sensitive to shifts in market volatility and interest-rate expectations; a sustained drop in VIX or a rapid rise in rates could erode the premium income that underpins the yield.
