Our read on FIYY
FMost Treasury option-income funds sell options on bonds. FIYY sells them on a 3x leveraged Treasury ETF, chasing three times the premium of a plain 20+ year Treasury overlay, with its own upside capped.
The fund seeks to earn three times the income produced by selling options on the ICE U.S. Treasury 20+ Year Bond Index, using options on leveraged ETFs targeting three times the index’s daily performance. It also seeks exposure to that leveraged ETF, subject to a gain cap.
Why people hold it
- Rather than writing options on Treasury bonds, it writes them on a 3x leveraged Treasury ETF, aiming for three times the income of selling options on the 20+ year Treasury index.graniteshares.com
- Premium isn't the whole story: the fund also seeks exposure to that leveraged Treasury ETF, so a rally in long bonds can contribute, up to a stated gain cap.graniteshares.com
- It's a standard 1940 Act ETF, so the option selling happens inside one ticker: no margin agreement, no option approvals, no contracts to roll yourself.graniteshares.com
Worth knowing
- At 1.07% a year, it costs roughly triple the plain 20+ year buy-writes TLTW and BUCK (0.35% each). The fee buys a leveraged engine, not a cheaper one.
- Writing options on a 3x fund means long-rate moves land about three times as hard, while the fund's own upside is limited by a gain cap.
- Launched in 2026, so there's little history behind it, and the prospectus discloses that distributions may include return of capital.
