Our read on TECY
FTECY owns no tech stocks. It sells put spreads on a 3x leveraged tech ETF, harvesting the fat premiums leverage creates, aiming for triple the option income of the plain sector index. Upside is capped by design.
TECY seeks income from options strategies, mainly by selling puts on leveraged ETFs that track the 3x Long Technology Daily ETF.
Why people hold it
- The engine: options on a 3x leveraged tech ETF carry far richer premiums, so the fund targets 3x the income of writing options on the Technology Select Sector Index itself.graniteshares.com
- The leverage sits in the ETF whose options it sells, not in TECY's own book. The fund itself does not borrow or lever its portfolio.graniteshares.com
- A floor is built into the trade: sell a near-the-money put, buy a further out-of-the-money put. The short leg's loss is bounded, not open-ended.graniteshares.com
- Runs an options-desk strategy inside a fund wrapper and pays the premium out on a recurring schedule rather than reinvesting it.graniteshares.com
Worth knowing
- Costs 1.07% a year, about triple the 0.35% median for sector options-income funds and the 0.35% State Street charges on XLVI and XLUI.
- Gains are capped: the secondary objective is leveraged-ETF exposure subject to a cap, so a big tech run is only partly captured while drawdowns reference a 3x product.graniteshares.com
- Launched in 2026 with a small asset base and light trading, so spreads can run wider than in the established sector income funds.
