I rate NEOS Russell 2000 High-Income ETF a BUY, targeting an 8%–12% total return over the next 6–12 months. IWMI's 13% trailing yield is compelling because it preserves meaningful Russell 2000 upside, with lower volatility than peers like ITWO and RDTE. The fund's flexible option strategy enables strong income generation without excessive sacrifice of total return, especially in more volatile or sideways small-cap markets.
Covered call ETFs have pulled in billions of dollars over the past few years, and most of that money has funneled into a small group of large-cap products tied to the S&P 500 or Nasdaq-100.

The fund described is an actively-managed Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) with a primary goal of achieving its investment objectives through a two-fold strategy. Initially, the fund focuses on investments in one or more ETFs that aim to mirror the performance of the Russell 2000® Index, a renowned small-cap stock index representing approximately the smallest 2000 stocks in the Russell 3000 Index. It encompasses a comprehensive portfolio of stocks that are part of the Russell 2000® Index or a combination that aligns with it. Furthermore, this fund employs a call options strategy, focusing on generating high monthly income. This is primarily achieved by writing (or selling) call options on the Russell 2000®, thereby leveraging the underlying securities' volatility and market movements to provide returns to the investors. This innovative approach combines direct index investment with an options strategy, aiming to offer investors both growth through index tracking and income through options premiums.
The fund focuses on the following primary products and services:
