BRKCBYieldMax BRK.B Option Income Strategy ETF

KWINAKraneShares Wahed Alternative Income Index ETF

In short

BRKC YieldMax points its option-income machinery at the ultimate buy-and-hold name. BRKC sells upside on Berkshire Hathaway to generate current income, and it never actually owns the shares.

KWIN An income fund built for investors who can't own interest. KWIN holds stocks, then sells calls and buys puts on each one, aiming for a delta-neutral book whose payout comes from options premium instead of a coupon.

Stated mandate

BRKC BRKC seeks current income while providing indirect exposure to the share-price returns of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK.B), with potential gains limited by its options strategy.

KWIN KWIN seeks alternative option income by holding long positions in selected equities while selling calls and buying puts against each position. The strategy is intended to produce a delta-neutral portfolio and is marketed as an alternative to traditional interest income.

Why people hold it

  • BRKC Expense ratio of 1.01%, a shade under the median for single-stock option-income ETFs, in a corner of the market where 1%-plus is the entry fee.
  • Grades out in the top slice of its single-stock option-income peer group, helped by a calmer measured risk profile than most funds built this way.
  • Mechanics stated up front: a synthetic covered call spread on BRK.B seeking current income plus indirect exposure to the stock's price moves, with gains limited by the options.
  • KWIN 0.51% a year, less than half the roughly 1.07% median of its options-income cohort. In a category where 1%-plus is the norm, that is a real head start.
  • The mechanics are unusually explicit: long a selected stock, short a call, long a put, position by position. The collars are the strategy, not a bolt-on overlay.kraneshares.com
  • Tracks the Wahed Shariah Alternative Income Index, so income is sourced from options premium rather than interest. Few option-income ETFs are built to that screen.kraneshares.com
  • On cost and measured risk it stands among the strongest implementations in a peer group of 64 single-stock option-income funds.

Worth knowing

  • BRKC You hold an options package, not Berkshire stock. The call spread caps how much of a big BRK.B run-up reaches you.
  • The fund discloses that distributions can include return of capital, meaning part of a payout may be your own capital coming back, which lowers net asset value.
  • Launched in 2025 and still small and thinly traded, which can mean wider bid-ask spreads and a short history to judge the strategy on.
  • KWIN Launched in November 2025. The record is short, so any read on how the collars behave across different markets rests on limited history.
  • Delta-neutral by design: the sold calls and bought puts are there to strip out the stock move, not to ride it. This is an income engine, not an equity growth sleeve.
  • Trades lightly next to the household names of the category, so spreads can be wider than headline size suggests. Limit orders matter more here.
