Description: XYLD Global X SP500 Covered Call November 08, 2025

The Global X S&P 500® Covered Call ETF (XYLD) commits at least 80% of its assets to securities that track the Cboe S&P 500 BuyWrite Index, or to assets that replicate the index’s economic profile, either on a security-by-security basis or in aggregate.

Key metrics to watch: the fund’s 30-day annualized covered-call premium yield typically ranges between 7%–9%, while its net expense ratio sits at 0.60%. Because the strategy sells call options against S&P 500 constituents, XYLD’s performance is sensitive to equity market volatility (VIX) and the direction of the underlying index; higher volatility generally boosts option premiums but can increase downside risk.

Sector exposure mirrors the S&P 500, with technology, health care, and consumer discretionary comprising the largest weightings. However, the covered-call overlay tends to dampen upside in high-growth sectors and provide modest downside protection during market corrections.

For investors seeking income-focused exposure to the broad U.S. equity market while accepting capped upside, a deeper dive into XYLD’s option-selling mechanics and its behavior across different market regimes on ValueRay could be worthwhile.
