Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

EIPICFT Energy Income Partners Enhanced Income ETF

TMEDBT. Rowe Price Health Care ETF

In short

EIPI Four First Trust closed-end energy funds were merged into one ETF in 2024, and this is the survivor: an Energy Income Partners portfolio of pipelines, utilities and energy majors that sells calls against part of the book and pays monthly.

TMED No data

Stated mandate

EIPI The Fund seeks high total return with an emphasis on current shareholder distributions.

TMED No data

Why people hold it

  • EIPI Run by energy specialist Energy Income Partners as sub-adviser: about 110 names across midstream, utilities and majors, chosen by hand rather than lifted from a sector index.businesswire.com
  • Writes call options against part of the portfolio to turn energy volatility into premium, and sends cash out on a monthly cadence.stockanalysis.com
  • ETF plumbing: shares create and redeem at net asset value, sidestepping the discount-to-NAV problem that dogged the four closed-end funds it absorbed.nasdaq.com

TMED No data

Worth knowing

  • EIPI Fees run 1.11% a year against roughly 0.65% for the median active US equity ETF; cohort leaders like DFAU (0.12%) and FELC (0.18%) charge a sliver of that.
  • One sector, one cycle. Commodity prices, pipeline volumes and utility rate decisions move the entire portfolio together.stockanalysis.com
  • Calls sold against holdings cap the upside on that slice, so a sharp energy rally partly passes the fund by. Income comes at the cost of some appreciation.stockanalysis.com
