With tantalizing yields that can reach 10% or more, covered-call exchange-traded funds have become a popular investment. The result is income for investors, based on the option's premium, in return for capped upside if the option is exercised. The derivative income Morningstar category, dominated by covered-call ETFs, saw inflows of $24.3 billion over the past year, as of June. The largest actively-managed, covered-call ETF is the JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF , which has a 6.88% 30-day yield and an adjusted expense ratio of 0.35%. Investors should also be aware of the strategy being used by the fund managers, which will affect the upside potential and call premium.
