GQI: Quality-Focused Buy-Write ETF, Still Unproven
Natixis Gateway Quality Income ETF offers an 8.6% yield via a quality-focused equity portfolio with a partial buy-write overlay. GQI's risk-adjusted returns and total performance since its December 2023 launch have lagged larger, more liquid buy-write ETF peers. The fund's moderate growth tilt, reasonable expense ratio (0.34%), and monthly distributions may appeal, but its track record is not compelling.
For Your Consideration: Derivative Income ETFs
Of all the ETF trends that took off in 2024, one of the more fascinating ones is the surge in derivative income ETFs. Oftentimes, these funds provide a blended exposure of current income and long-term equity exposure.
