Description: BUYW Main Buywrite January 26, 2026
The Main BuyWrite ETF (BATS: BUYW) allocates capital to a diversified basket of U.S. and non-U.S. equity ETFs, then layers a “BuyWrite” overlay: it sells covered call options on the underlying holdings and also writes secured put options to capture option premiums as additional income.
As of the Q4 2025 fund report, BUYW managed roughly $620 million in assets, carries an expense ratio of 0.45 %, and delivered a 12-month distribution yield of 7.2 % (annualized), driven largely by option-premium income that averaged 2.8 % of the portfolio’s market value each month.
Key drivers of performance include (1) elevated implied volatility in the S&P 500 and MSCI EAFE indices-providing richer option premiums; (2) a flattening U.S. yield curve, which supports the cost-of-carry dynamics underlying secured puts; and (3) sector tilt toward high-beta technology and consumer discretionary stocks, which amplify both upside capture and option premium generation.
