Our read on TSPY
In short
BTappAlpha writes S&P 500 calls that expire the same day, harvesting premium daily instead of monthly, and distributes monthly. An actively run take on the covered-call trade that still chases capital appreciation, not just yield.
Stated mandate
The Fund seeks current income and capital appreciation while obtaining exposure to the S&P 500® Index through an actively managed covered-call strategy. It sells primarily daily or 0DTE call options against its long S&P 500 exposure to generate option-premium income.
