Our read on OARK
In short
FOARK owns no stock. It uses options to mirror the price moves of the ARK Innovation ETF and sells calls against that exposure, turning a growth basket that pays no dividends into an income position, with upside limited by design.
Stated mandate
The Fund seeks current income while providing indirect exposure to the share-price returns of the ARK Innovation ETF, subject to limited participation in potential gains.
