Our read on QRMI
BMost Nasdaq-100 income funds sell calls and leave the downside wide open. QRMI spends part of that call premium on a protective put, collaring the index every month so the payout arrives with a hedge attached.
The Fund seeks to track the price and yield performance of the Nasdaq-100 Monthly Net Credit Collar 95-100 Index before fees and expenses. Its strategy combines Nasdaq-100 stocks with a monthly protective put and covered-call collar.
Why people hold it
- The collar resets monthly: covered calls on Nasdaq-100 stocks pay for a protective put, and the index is built so the calls bring in more premium than the put costs.assets.globalxetfs.com
- Among Nasdaq-100 income peers like QYLD, QYLG and JEPQ, this is the one that spends premium on downside protection instead of pocketing all of it.
- Pays monthly, and the 0.60% fee sits under the typical Nasdaq-100 options-income fund.
- You hold the actual Nasdaq-100 names, roughly 110 lines, with the option legs layered on top rather than a synthetic stand-in.
Worth knowing
- The hedge isn't free: the calls that pay for the put also cap how much of a Nasdaq-100 rally the fund keeps.assets.globalxetfs.com
- A small fund that trades thinly, so spreads can be wider than the category giants and limit orders do real work.
- Monthly payouts ride on option premiums, which swell and shrink with volatility. No fixed rate is promised.globalxetfs.com
