Our read on each fund
SPINA
YLDY—
In short
SPIN State Street's take on the covered-call boom: an actively picked book of large- and mid-cap US stocks with index calls written over the top, priced at 0.25% a year, a fraction of the typical options-income fee.
Stated mandate
SPIN SPIN seeks current income while retaining potential for long-term growth. It actively invests in large- and mid-cap U.S. stocks selected for fundamentals, valuation, and growth prospects, while dynamically selling calls on a U.S. large-cap exposure such as the S&P 500 to add monthly income.
