Description: RYLD Russell 2000 Covered Call January 18, 2026

The Global X Russell 2000 Covered Call ETF (RYLD) allocates at least 80% of its assets to securities that replicate the Russell 2000 Index, then systematically writes one-month at-the-money covered call options on the same index. This structure aims to generate monthly income while preserving exposure to U.S. small-cap equities.

Key metrics as of the latest filing show an expense ratio of 0.60%, a 30-day SEC yield around 7.2%, and assets under management exceeding $2 billion. Performance is closely tied to small-cap market dynamics, the level of the VIX (which influences option premiums), and the Fed’s policy stance, since higher rates can compress equity valuations and affect option pricing.
