Description: FTQI Nasdaq BuyWrite Income December 26, 2025
The First Trust Nasdaq BuyWrite Income ETF (FTQI) seeks to generate income by holding U.S. equities-primarily Nasdaq-100 constituents-and simultaneously selling short-term (≤ 12 months) call options on the Nasdaq-100 Index, generally at-the-money to out-of-the-money strikes.
Key metrics to watch include its expense ratio (0.45 % as of 2024), the option-premium yield (≈ 5-7 % annualized in recent low-volatility regimes), and its beta relative to the Nasdaq-100 (≈ 0.85), which reflects the trade-off between upside participation and downside protection. The fund’s performance is especially sensitive to implied volatility (VIX) and to sector weightings-technology and consumer discretionary dominate the Nasdaq-100, so macro-driven shifts in tech spending or earnings cycles materially affect premium income.
