Our read on OEI
CMost options-income funds lead with yield. OEI flips it: the prospectus puts long-term growth first and income second, keeping roughly 90% of assets in stocks, at a fee below the category norm. New in late 2025, so the record is short.
The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation, with current income as a secondary consideration. It invests at least 80% of net assets in equity securities and generally expects approximately 90% in them.
Why people hold it
- Growth-first by charter: the prospectus names long-term capital appreciation first and income secondary, with at least 80% of net assets in equities and generally about 90%.
- Costs 0.75% a year, under the typical fee in its options-income group. Unusual pricing for a brand-new active fund.
- An all-US stock portfolio with options layered on top, not the main event, and it stands in the upper half of a crowded options-income field.
Worth knowing
- Launched in October 2025, so there is no full-cycle record yet and risk reads on it rest on a single year of data.
- Income is the stated second priority and payouts have not settled into a steady monthly rhythm, so the cash flow is a byproduct, not a schedule.
- Small and lightly traded next to the group's heavyweights (PAPI, JOYT), which also charge well under half its fee, so spreads can bite on entry and exit.
