GPIXAGoldman Sachs S&P 500 Premium Income ETF

XRMIBGlobal X S&P 500 Risk Managed Income ETF

In short

GPIX Most option-income funds sell the whole rally for yield. GPIX is written to ask for both: current income and preserved prospects for capital appreciation, on a roughly 500-stock S&P 500 core, at 0.35%, paid monthly.

XRMI A covered-call fund with a seatbelt. XRMI owns the S&P 500, sells at-the-money calls for income, and spends part of that premium on puts 5% below the market, so the hedge is built in rather than bolted on. Pays monthly.

Stated mandate

GPIX The Fund seeks current income while preserving prospects for capital appreciation. It invests primarily in benchmark-related stocks and sells call options providing exposure to the benchmark to generate premium income.

XRMI XRMI seeks returns broadly corresponding to the price and yield performance of the Cboe S&P 500 Risk Managed Income Index. It owns S&P 500 stocks and uses a net-credit collar to generate income while mitigating significant market declines.

Why people hold it

  • GPIX The mandate is income without giving up on growth: hold benchmark stocks, sell calls tied to the S&P 500 for premium, and keep prospects for capital appreciation.
  • The 0.35% fee sits below the typical charge among S&P 500 option-income peers, including older buy-write names like XYLD.
  • Roughly 500 stocks underneath and cash out the door monthly, so the equity engine is the index itself rather than a synthetic stand-in.
  • A multi-billion-dollar, actively traded fund launched in 2023, and one of the tighter implementations of this strategy in its peer group.
  • XRMI Net-credit collar: it sells at-the-money S&P 500 calls and buys 5% out-of-the-money puts, sized so the call premium collected exceeds the cost of the puts.globalxetfs.comglobalxetfs.com 2
  • Calls are struck at the money, the fattest part of the premium curve, not safely out of the money. Distributions go out monthly.globalxetfs.com
  • Holds the roughly 500 S&P 500 stocks outright and layers the options on top. No swap counterparty, no fund-of-funds wrapper.
  • Running since 2021 and tied to a published Cboe index, so strikes and rolls follow a rulebook rather than a manager's read of the tape.

Worth knowing

  • GPIX Premium income comes from selling upside. Where calls are written, gains are capped, so a fast melt-up in the S&P 500 leaves some return on the table.
  • Distributions can include return of capital, meaning part of a payout may be your own money coming back. The fund's tax disclosures show the split.
  • This is an equity fund, not a hedge. Option premium softens the ride; it does not put a floor under a market drop.
  • XRMI At-the-money calls trade away the upside above the strike each period, so equity gains in a strong rally are structurally limited.globalxetfs.com
  • The put starts 5% below the market, so the first slice of a decline lands on the fund before the hedge engages.globalxetfs.com
  • At 0.60% it sits at the median of a crowded S&P 500 options-income field where IVVW (0.25%) and GPIX (0.35%) run cheaper, and it trades thinly, so spreads matter.
