The FT Cboe Vest Gold Strategy Target Income ETF aims to provide participation in the returns of holding SPDR Gold Trust while generating current income from writing call options. IGLD has performed as expected, capturing ~69% of GLD's upside since June 2023 while paying a 7.8% yield. With the Fed expected to begin cutting rates in September, I believe IGLD could be an interesting way for yield-oriented investors to participate in the upcoming gold rally.

FT Vest Gold Strategy Target Income ETF aims to generate income that exceeds yields on short-term US Treasury securities while providing exposure to gold returns. The ETF invests in a basket of short-term US Treasury securities and cash equivalents, as well as a subsidiary that holds options referencing the performance of SPDR Gold Trust. While the income-generating strategy may be attractive, the ETF underperforms compared to owning gold directly due to the use of options and derivatives.

The BoJ announced it will now hold short-term rates at a still-accommodative 0% to 0.1% and is getting rid of its yield curve control program and ETF purchases.

The German stock market has gone parabolic in an exceptionally strong move, after meandering over the summer months with sub-par economic releases. The surface reason for this division is that the vast majority of German earnings are not driven by the domestic economy but by their multinational operations.

There Could Be A Simple Explanation For The Dax Moonshot Move

The FT Cboe Vest Gold Strategy Target Income ETF aims to provide participation in the returns of holding SPDR Gold Trust while generating current income. The IGLD ETF has underperformed compared to the GLD ETF, with a 1-year return of 2.8% versus GLD's 6.4%. The underperformance raises questions about the effectiveness of IGLD's strategy, as both treasury bill holdings and the underlying asset (GLD) have generated positive returns.
