ABOUT THIS FUND
The REX IncomeMax Option Strategy ETF (ULTI) strives to deliver regular weekly income by integrating exposure to equities, active options trading, and investments in short-duration U.S. government bonds. Its underlying portfolio consists of 15 to 30 American-listed company stocks, or comparable synthetic positions created using options. Security selection is driven by a systematic quantitative methodology, pinpointing companies with elevated implied volatility and robust liquidity to maximize both option premium earnings and dividend yields. The fund's main source of revenue comes from sophisticated options strategies, including the sale of covered call options, the issuance of put options, and the deployment of call spreads to capture premium income. While this method aims for consistent distributions, it inherently limits profit potential when stock prices experience significant upward trends. To manage downside exposure, each option written is strategically balanced with a lower-delta purchased option, thereby cushioning against potential losses during market downturns. Furthermore, as much as 10% of the fund's assets may be held in short-term U.S. Treasuries or cash, serving as crucial collateral and generating additional interest income.
