Company Info

First Trust Nasdaq BuyWrite Income ETF (FTQI) had its IPO on 2014-01-07, and is traded on NASDAQ stock exchange.

The Fund's primary goal is to generate a steady stream of income. It achieves this by principally investing in stocks traded on American exchanges. To further boost its income potential, the Fund employs an options strategy: it actively sells U.S. exchange-traded covered call options linked to the Nasdaq-100 Index. This approach aims to secure additional cash flow through the collection of "premiums." A premium represents the payment the Fund receives when it sells an option contract to another party, and these earnings have the potential to be distributed to shareholders each month.
