Our read on NBOS
In short
BMost options-income ETFs sell calls on stocks they already own. NBOS flips the trade: it sells collateralized puts on the S&P 500 and parks the collateral in bonds, so premium, not dividends, does the work.
Stated mandate
The Fund seeks long-term capital growth and income mainly by selling collateralized puts on U.S. indices, including the S&P 500 and related S&P 500 suite indices, while investing collateral in fixed-income instruments intended to moderate volatility.
