Our read on DRKY
CA rules-based mirror of Stanley Druckenmiller's family office: the top 20 US-listed longs from Duquesne's latest 13F, wrapped in an options overlay targeting 15% annual income paid monthly. The fund is not affiliated with Duquesne.
The actively managed ETF seeks current income and, secondarily, long-term capital appreciation. It combines an equity portfolio based on the BITA VistaShares DRUKMacro Select Index with an options portfolio, targeting 15% annual income distributed monthly.
Why people hold it
- Copies Duquesne's disclosed top 20 US-listed equity positions by index rule, reconstituted quarterly, so you skip the 13F spreadsheet work.vistashares.com
- Income is the stated first objective, not an afterthought: an options portfolio sits on top of the stocks, targeting 15% a year paid out monthly.
- Roughly 20 names, weighted by their size in Duquesne's book. The portfolio resembles its source rather than diluting it across hundreds of tickers.vistashares.com
- The 0.95% fee lands at the median for actively overlaid options-income ETFs, though cheaper peers run this playbook (PAPI at 0.29%, DIVO at 0.56%).
Worth knowing
- 13Fs arrive up to 45 days after quarter-end and cover US-listed longs only. A macro investor's shorts, bonds and currency trades never appear, so you get the stock slice, late.sec.govvistashares.com
- The 15% is a target, not a commitment. Payouts vary month to month and can include return of capital, which reduces NAV over time.vistashares.com
- Launched October 2025 and still small and thinly traded, so the record is short and spreads can run wider than the category's biggest funds.
